Backup unix samba export with nt veritas backup exec 8
Hi, I'am new in using Samba. My HPUX-Box has SAMBA 2.2.0 installed and the SAMBA-exports are visible in NT Backup-exec 8.3.. - but when I try to choose backupfiles the Popup-Window [a device specific error occured] is the end of my backup hopes. Is there anything to alleviate this error? Is it possible to use Pipes somehow with Win NT? PS: Nt-backup can backup the exports. Can anyone help?

It isn't easy to say for certain exactly what the fix was as there have been literally *hundreds* of correctness fixes, from wildcard matching to the above mentioned locking rewrite. I'm afraid you'll have to wait until 2.2.0 ships, which I cannot say for certain yet (we're still working on the NT printing update).
