Re: samba backups and -N option

In my testing it seemed the file could be on the direct client,
not the indirect PC. But I must admit I was only doing it from
the command line. For that I was creating (touch -t ...) the
control file on the linux box then smbtar'ing from a windows host.
This would mean the samba user should have write permission on all the
shares being backed up.
A likely place for it would be in the debug directory of the direct client.
I do belive that the reference file could be on the direct client.
However, I think this assumes that the direct client (which is probably
a Unix box) and the indirect client (the Windows box) have their clocks
well synchronized.
