Hi Lars,
Could it be something to do with character representation? If I remember
rightly there are many different ways that Samba can represent some unusual
characters (such as the å, ¢ and æ characters I see in there).
If that's the case, then maybe someone on a Samba list could give you an answer.
You could try copying one of those files to the local machine and doing a test
dump of that file - see if it complains in a similar manner.
Another alternative for a quick fix - I notice you've used ntbackup to backup
the Exchange database to a file which you then backup - you could again use
ntbackup to backup the file storage then backup that single file. It's hardly
an ideal situation, but it could get your backups up and running in the short
term.
Thanks,

Hi I'm using
amanda 2.4.3 on a RedHat 9.0. Up until now amanda have been working perfectly.
Then I made some changes:
1) migrated mailserver from Redhat 8 to a MS Exchange server
2) migrated fileserver from a RedHat 8 to a MS Excahnge server
I did number one quite a while ago and most of the time there is no problems
but sometimes I get the following report in the daily amanda
mail:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
backuphost //exchange/backups lev 0 STRANGE
FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:
/-- backuphost //exchange/backups lev 0 STRANGE
sendbackup: start [backuphost://exchange/backups level 0]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/bin/smbclient
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/bin/smbclient -f... -
sendbackup: info end
? File size change - truncating \mail_backup.bkf to 1825887232 bytes

sendbackup: end

2) was a emergency operation since the old file server started acting weird. I
will later set up a MS 2003 server to host the file server. But since I moved
it I've been getting the followeing error:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
backuphost //exchange/finance lev 1 STRANGE
FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:
/-- backuphost //exchange/finance lev 1 STRANGE
sendbackup: start [backuphost://exchange/finance level 1]

my disklist looks like this:
# Take everything on the mail server
backuphost //exchange/backups samba
# New Finance
backuphost //exchange/finance samba
backuphost //exchange/marvin samba
# Take DB dumps from F.Engel (placed on suseref) suseref.videlity /backup
client_compression
and my dumptypes are difend like this:
define dumptype normal_backup {
compress NONE
index yes
maxdumps 5
program "GNUTAR"
record yes
}
define dumptype samba {
normal_backup
program "GNUTAR"
compress server fast
index yes
}
define dumptype client_compression {
normal_backup
compress client fast
index yes
}
Anyone got any ideas what is going on? I've tried google but can't verify that
anyone talks about exactly whats going on in my case.
thanks in advance.
