Hi, Does anyone have experience with BackupExec and Samba? BackupExec refuse to access Samba shares. Windows shares are OK, but all my Samba shares are not. I have Samba on at least 2 Linux 2.4 machines + 1 on Solaris. Neither ones work with BExec. Any idea? Other have experience with BExec and Samba? Thanks a lot -jec _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Jean-Eric Cuendet

Is there an improved BackupExec Unix agent available that works with Samba? If not, can someone tell me how to work around the lack of the archive bit that Linux has? In particular, RedHat Linux 7.2 is the system I'm looking for help on. I found the following hints in an older version of this newsletter, Samba Digest, Vol. 3, Issue 34, sent March 21, 2003, that had this in it: Yes, we have

Hi, I've got Samba 2.0.2 and a server NT4 SP3 with Seagate BackupExec 7.0. When I want to backup Samba with Seagate BackupExec, I get a message saying "Unable to connect to server, <F5> to retry", and then another one saying "A device specific error occured". I've read all the Samba archive about that subject, but I do not find any solution. I don't

If you can see the server, but not shares, you most likely have not published any directories. What version of the BE agent are you using? I've noticed 4.6 works well (the install actually works well and will walk you through the setup to publish the directories to be backed up). It's often easier to just publish root (but exclude /proc /tmp). Also, I've found out that in the hosts

I created test environment: 1 root domain, 2 subdomain. I created about 250000 user accounts in subdomain 2 (sub2.company.com) ntds.dit 14gb. Joining samba in first subdomain (sub1) was without problem. But in production environment (with a lot of domains and objects) python process was hung with 100% CPU (after 6 hour we killed hung process). Why can this happened? This is samba subdomain

It's strange. We have root domain and a lot subdomain. We try to join Samba to one of subdomain. Active Directory DB (NTDS.dit) without GC = 1.2 Gb, with GC=16 Gb. When we try to join Samba we have samba DB limit 4Gb. We see that samba replicate information about all domains in forest: descriptor_sd_propagation_recursive: DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=domain1,DC=oao,DC=company not found under

Anyone know the reason RHEL bumped Samba from 3.5.10 to 3.6.9? This version has a regression with BackupExec and Veeam backing up to network shares. I receive access denied errors. Samba is in security=user mode and not joined to a domain. If I downgrade just the Samba packages to the CentOS 6.3 version 3.5.10 everything works again. I've found a couple of bug reports and the one suggested fix

This sounds more like an Windows problem, but it is an interaction with Samba and I'm hoping someone has an idea of where to start looking. 3 times in the past week I've had a user (different user each time) come to me saying their P: drive is inaccessible, access denied. The P: drive is set in the user's Active Directory Profile as their home directory \\sambaserver\home$\%username%

Hi Franck, to my knowledge, the Backup Exec service "runs" under a certain user. In most cases it is the user who installed it, so very often "Administrator". Now if you try to backup a Samba share, Backup Exec tries to retrieve the files of this share and has to authenticate to the Samba Server. I suspect it will do this with the "credentials" of the user the Backup

Hi, I'm searching for 2 months on this problem (I've searched in the archive of course and I've sent a message on this mailing list, the suggestions had helped me but I didn't manage to resolve the problem).

Hello, all I have a problem with my administrator accounts on WinNT with Samba. When I log in locally as the Administrator, it works as expected - I *am* the administrator for the machine. When I log into the domain as Administrator, it works as expected - I log in as root. The prolem comes when I try to do anything on the local machine as Administrator (logged into the Samba server). The

Webgen uses file paths to generate multilevel menues, bread crumbs etc. And limits the character range in paths to a-zA-Z. As the directory names are used verbatim as menu labels this is fairly limitting for non-english pages. Is there a way to map directory names to configurable UTF8 strings for menu labels? oao

Hi all, I'm just looking at using smbtar to backup the Win95 PC's on my network, and would like usability ideas please. The tape drive I intend to use is in our RS6000 and has a capacity of 20GB before compression which means that I will be able to fit plenty of PC's onto one tape as all the PC's have <3GB HD's on them. The problem I have is how do I get multiple

This is not a request for help, but I thought the readers of this mailing list might appreciate the following, anyway.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to create a function using "body<-" (). The help file for body() says that the argument should be a list of R expressions. However if I try that I get an error: > tmpfun <- function(a, b=2){} > body(tmpfun) <- list(expression(z <- a + b),expression(z^2)) Error in as.function.default(c(formals(f), value), envir) :

The documentation (in ver 1.1) for contrasts and contrasts<- does not list all the arguments for those functions. In addition to x, the factor whose contrasts are being extracted or set, contrasts() has the argument 'contrasts=TRUE', and contrasts<-() has the argument 'how.many'. It was this latter that had me flummoxed, because I wanted to reparametrize a model by
