If you don't want to back everything up on the samba share,
an easy way of excluding files/directories are to just deny the backup user
account access at all. I found this works a lot better than trying to get
an exclude statement working w/ SMB, but the trick only works with
NTFS.
If I understand your question
correctly, you are looking for smbclient; which is being called by Amanda in
case of backing up an smb server (your windowsserver)
smbclient is part of the Samba suite.
In your amanda disklist you would
have sth. like this :
localhost
//WindowsServerName/WindowShareName server-compress
in your /etc/amandapass there would be an entry like this
:
//WindowServerName/WindowsShareName
domainuserwithaccess%passwordforthisuser

use? |

Hello!
We have our amanda server running on Linux, we use
large disks as
backup medium
and it works great.. However, I am not
sure which windows client to use
for our
Windows 2000 server machine..
Can anyone point me to which client I
should use?
Regards,
