Yes, this is exactly the software I use.

You are right, but I do not know how to open it as the windows 2000
server do not have firewall.

It connection refused.
I also tried using smb, but there was an error as well:
tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0
sizeExistComp, 0 filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal
Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share d)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share d)
Mabe the problem with smb is this one:
============================================================
Dear Craig,
first of all I want to say thank you very very much for such a great
piece of free software and all the time you (and the other developers)
spent for it!
But I think, I've found a little (really tiny) bug in the regexp in line
244 of Smb.pm (BackupPC version 2.0.2):
if ( /^\s*(-?\d+) \(\s*\d+\.\d kb\/s\) (.*)$/ ) {
I think it should better be as follows:
if ( /^\s*(-?\d+) \(\s*\d+[\.\,]\d kb\/s\) (.*)$/ ) {
=================================================================
But I do not know where the Smb.pm is. So, both smb and rsync still fail.
Regards,
David
