Still pulling my hair out over this. We moved from 'smbfs' to
'cifs' (/bin/mount -t cifs --verbose -o username=backup,password=OMITTED
"//ables-dt/Documents" /backup) with identical results. I've
thrown together an example session with smbclient and a debug-10 logfile:
http://www.divus.org/?id=306
Some files are readable, others are not, despite the 'backup' user
having been granted SeBackupPrivilege:
[root@matrix samba]# net rpc rights list accounts
...
Everyone
No privileges assigned
PPSbackup
SeBackupPrivilege
(For those just tuning in, 'matrix' is a Samba 3.0.21a PDC on a Windows
domain, with an openldap/smbldaptools backed. Everything else is working just
fine, but, when matrix goes to mount Windows XP workstations' shares to do
nightly backups, it's getting permissions problems accessing some but not
all files, despite the fact that, to my understanding, SeBackupPrivilege is
supposed to supercede all other considerations.)
Help?! How would/could/did you implement a reliable Windows->Linux backup
scheme?
Thanks,
Chris
