Hi,
our backup program regularly invokes smbclient to generate a tar-file
from an NT-Workstation share. What it does is
/usr/samba/bin/smbclient \\\\maclaurin\\maclaurin password -U backup -E -W MATH
-d3 -Tc - > maclaurin.tar
Now this is the output:
Client started (version 2.0.6).
resolve_lmhosts: Attempting lmhosts lookup for name maclaurin<0x20>
resolve_hosts: Attempting host lookup for name maclaurin<0x20>

invalid mid from server!
Here it stops and does nothing more. The created tar file is corrupt.
Where is the problem? Is it samba or the NT box? May it be a specific file
that causes the trouble? If I connect with smbclient manually I can
get the file above without any problems. But a 'tar c file.tar' in the
specified directory does not go through.
Any help?
I am not subscribed, so please respond directly to me.
Thanks,
Christopher
