Hi all, I posted this to the list a few weeks ago but got no response. I'm running Amanda and smbtar and trying to back up some files on a Windows 2000 machine. I've verified that the files it's trying to back up are NOT open and permissions are fine for it to be backed up. This is a sample of the messages: ? code 0 opening remote file \ebsco-1064\cueanalysisnew.zip (\ebsco-1064\) ? Expected SMBtrans2 response, got command 0x04 ? code 0 listing \ebsco-1064\dups\* ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file \ebsco-1064\ebsco-all \ebsco-156.txt (\ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\) ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file \ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\ebsco-157.txt (\ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\) ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file \ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\ebsco-46.txt (\ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\) ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file \ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\ebsco-534.txt (\ebsco-1064\ebsco-all\) I also get hundreds of lines in the Amanda logfile (which basically just gives smbtar's error messages) like this: ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile listing \GRE\texts-secure\d.txtt\* (^^^ I get hundreds of these! ^^^) Can anyone help me with this? It's really annoying to get a 1.9 megabyte Amanda report file because of these errors. Thanks! Tom __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
