Does smbtar have a size limit ?
Hello. I'm trying to use smbtar/smbclient (2.0.3) to copy an NTFS share on an NT Server, onto a Solaris 2.5 system. The NTFS partition is 10Gb. At the 2Gb mark, the tar stops. No errors, the file just stops. The process (smbtar) returns. Is this a problem with Solaris 2.5 ? I believe it is, and if I upgrade to 2.6, I can create larger tar files. However, does anyone know if

smbtar help needed
I am attempting to pipe the output of smbtar into gzip in a script. The problem that I have is that smbtar echo's out "Params count: 11" before sending the information out to gzip. This causes the tar file to have a "tar: directory checksum error" error. Is there any way I can get smbtar not to report the Params count? The following is the command I am using.

smbtar question?
Hi all, I want to move a filesystem off of my NT server over to my Network Appliance NFS server to then be shared via Samba. I assume the easiest way to accomplish this would be to use smbtar. Do I then use smbtar to extract the tar file I create with smbtar, or, can I use gnutar? Does it matter? Am I safer sticking with smbtar? I'm guessing that since smbtar is a wrapper around

How to include system files with smbtar?
Hi, I recently upgraded to 1.9.18p8, and noticed that smbtar no longer automatically includes system files. I can't seem to find a way to include the 'tarmode system' command in the smbtar shell script. If I add a -c "tarmode system" to the $SMBCLIENT command line at the end of the smbtar shell script, I get no tarred files at all. Can anybody help me with this?

Updated from 2.2.8a to 3.0b3 gives smbtar newer failure
Hi all, Situation: We use smbtar for backups, incrementals done using -N <last date file>, and this has worked well with samba 2.2.x After upgrading to 3.0b3, using the -N (newer) option to smbtar causes a bad interaction with smbclient. Eg,: # smbtar -s PC -x Share -u User -p Pwd -d / -t - -N last-backup -v gives (if you print out the eval at the end of smbtar script): eval

smbtar skips files, why?
Hello, I'm using Samba version 1.9.18p10. I am trying to backup a Win95 disk with smbtar, but it skips lots of files without any apparant reason. For example, I have a directory C:\Acrobat3, with various subdirectories. With smbclient I can see and browse them just fine: smb: \> cd Acrobat3 smb: \Acrobat3\> dir . D 0 Wed Aug 19

smbtar cannot recognize space character in filename

He tried to execute following command line to back file "long file name" up: $ smbtar -s SERVER -p PASSWORD -x SHARE -u username -t /tmp/backup.tar \ "long file name" but smbtar tried to include three files as 'long', 'file' and 'name'. :-( Here is the

smbtar
To all, Can SambaTar backup multiple "pc's" at once ? I have 5 Win95 machines with 9 different drive partitions. What would be the proper syntax ( if any) to specify multiple pc and multiple share names ? I would like to do one complete backup on a single 4mm DAT tape. Is there a better way to do this using Samba ? I am using Samba version 1.9.17p4 running on Sun Solaris 2.5.1

smbtar problem
I was using smbtar to test backing up an NT server, everything works fine except that for quite a lot of the files it has an error downloading them(probably 2/3 of them actually). All it says is : Error reading file \dir\dir\file. Got 0 bytes Didn't get entire file. size=533, nread=0 I could see this happening if the file were opened exclusively such as the paging file, but to my knowledge

NT crashes during smbtar
I have been regularly crashing my NT boxen trying to back them up via an smbtar (smbclient). The crash is not complete - the network layer on NT goes away.

The UNIX samba server is Solaris 2.5 with the latest samba version (1.9.18p8?) also with other samba versions. I tried updating the NT

smbtar and long filenames
Hi, I've looked through the samba archives, and saw no messages related to this. Is there a way to get smbtar to tar long filenames? When I restore the files, they're all cut down to 8.3 format. smbclient does see the long filenames of an NetBui drive, why doesn't smbtar? Thanks. Gabe
