- Subject: Using smbtar
- =============================================================================
-
- Please see the readme and the man page for general info.
-
- 1) Follow the samba installation instructions.
-
- 2) If all goes well, test it out by creating a share on your PC (called
- backup for example) then doing something like,
-
- ./smbtar -s mypc -t /dev/rmt/0ubn -x backup
-
- substituting whatever your tape drive is for the -t option, or set your
- tape environmental variable.
-
- If all does not go well, feel free to mail the author (poultenr@logica.co.uk)
- about bug reports / help / money / pizza / etc.
-
- 3) Read the man page and the NOTES file for more information
-
- 4) Work smbtar into your usual nightly backup scheme (presuming you
- have one :-}).
-
-
- NOTE:
-
- If you have problems with smbtar then it's probably best to contact the
- author Ricky Poulten (poultenr@logica.co.uk).
