We are migrating an LTO2 library off Veritas and NTBackup on a Windows Server to a Linux Server with either Bacula or Amanda. Originally, the Windows server used scripts to sync changes from various other Windows servers using Robocopy to a locally attached set of volumes, then ran the backup nightly (Full's were always done). I now had hoped to rsync the Samba shares to a local replica on

I'm depending on scp to create the .ssh directory (which is does) but it can't use the directory it just created in the current session thus the "error" message. I would like to run the command just once if possible :) Is it possible I could get a patch if this is changed? [root /root]# ls -la total 84 drwxr-x--- 9 root root 4096 Dec 17 19:18 . drwxr-xr-x 16

HI All, I have a directory tree that when the user un-gzips/untars it does into /opt by default. The directory tree is like: ugui | |-- <misc files> |-- source |-----framework |------ <misc files> so when unzipped I want to end it with /opt/ugui and all the stuff below it. How do I do this? Can I also issue one command that will unzip and untar the archive at the same time?

I'm reposting this problem (perhaps a bug) now I've got more information on it. This is another point of view of the situation and I hope someone could have run into the same trouble before (and solved it :-)) This is it: * with ntbackup 2000 I create a 22Gb .bkf file in the windows machine. * I can copy that file over a samba share and get correct info form the file in windows

Hi all, I experienced the same problem with 3.0.4 that Jeremy and Bruno were discussing - NTBackup unable being to connect to shares and erroring out with 'Access Denied'. I have today upgraded to 3.0.5 (using the Debian Woody packages) and that didn't fix the problem. Was the fix in 3.0.5r1 only applicable to 2000/2003 server? I am stuck in the dark ages of NT 4 here, maybe that is a

Hi All, For a backup purpose I'm trying to transfer only the changed blocks of large files. Thus I've run "rsync" with the appropriate options: RSYNC_BKPDIR=`mktemp -d` rsync \ --archive \ --no-whole-file \ --inplace \ --backup \ --backup-dir="$RSYNC_BKPDIR" \ --verbose \ --stats \ /var/backups/mysql-dbs/. \ /mnt/bkp/var/backups/mysql-dbs/. The

Hi I have a Linux/XFS/Samba that Windows Domain users access through client machines either by UNC or mapped drive. I am trying to work out a backup plan. I would like to use ntbackup to achieve this with Normal (once) and Differential (daily) backups. However, when I run the normal backup the archive checkbox does not get cleared so the differential backup backs up everything again. I have

Hello. We are having a really strange problem and I have been searching the net all day for a answer. We are trying to restore files from NTBackup to a Samba share using alternate pathing in ntbackup. The samba machine is a Solaris 8 machine with Samba 3.0.3 beeing a member of out AD domain. We map the samba share to Y:\ on the XP machine using a named account in AD, with a local

Hi all, I'm experiencing a problem when NTBACKING'UP my W2000 Server files against a Linux 2.4.9 + ReiserFS 3.6 file system + Samba share. It works OK for the first 4 Gb's around file size. Then ntbackup stops serving data and the file on the samba side appears to be downsized to 0 and growing ssssslowly. Once you stop ntbackup by killing the process, the file reappears at its real

Well, I have been busy getting child #4 off on her way to college (joining #2). So now it is quite with just the 2 youngest and I can get work done again!. tar stops as follows: /root/.nautilus/metafiles/x-nautilus-desktop:%2F%2F52F.xml tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. I thought perhaps this is some file locked becuase I was running from a terminal session in gnome. So I

Hello again!

I have a file Server CentOS 5.10, its on the internet, so I compress all csv into one file using (tar -czvf compressed_files.tar.gz *.csv) on this server so that I can download them as one compressed file to save bandwidth, Disk space on this server available is 50Gig, so when I copy the files onto Redhat EL 5.9 and decompress them using (tar -zxvf *.gz) It decompresses maybe 80% then get error:

I had originally written about this problem last month (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085418.html) Since then, our company has added another Windows Fileserver which I'm trying to back up, and they are both having the problem. Because it happens on both servers, this leads me to believe it really is a problem with my Samba server. I've upgraded to 2.2.7a, as the

Hi all, I have somewhat a strange problem that I could not figure out, maybe someone here can lelp. I have a script that uses scp to distribute files to many servers, I use '-o BatchMode=yes -o ConnectTimeout=2 options so the scp will not get stuck if something is wrong with the remote host. If the remote host is down (non-pingable) or sshd is down the timeout option works and the scp

Hi all, Has anyone got any advice on the best way to backup Exchange mailboxes (Exchange 5.5) running on a Windows 2000 server? We already use rsync on a number of other Windows boxes for general file backup. I've read that even if you get backups of the Exchange mailbox files, then it's really tricky to get the mailboxes back into Exchange if the server dies. Anyone got any tips on

Nicholas: Regarding your problem: "The SGI server is only serving files, no home directories, no printers (we have separate NT servers for each of those functions), and it is using "SERVER" level security. Encryption is on. Guest logins are disabled ... I'm confused greatly by this - one day, a user's login will work, another day, it'll suddenly stop working. "

I am backing up customers data over a vpn using rsync. Someone requested to sign up for my offsite backup and they have exchange. I am wondering the best way to backup exchange with rsync. Can I just stop the services before the backup and then restart them afterward. Their uptime isn't critical so being down for an hour at 1am or something like that wouldn't be too bad. Any help
