Ok - here is the fix/problem for this: The new version has the new smbclient package.
backuppc(both versions shipped with 8.04 and 8.10) by default backs up smb pcs using /usr/bin/smbclient -N for INCR FULL and Restore commands. The new smbclient package if you use the -N switch it does not pass the password through hence the backups fail. Looks like that change from the old smbclient to the new one. FIX: Either smbclient package needs to be changed (that -N passes the password command still) or the default config.pl file shipped with the latest backuppc on intrepid needs to be modified and the -N of smbclient portion removed. Its a simple fix, can some develop fix this so backuppc actually works in 8.10? -- after backuppc server upgrade from hardy to intrepid, windows backups all fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283652 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
