Re: [BackupPC-devel] SMB Windows share not backing up

[Nick v. I. <nij...@en...>]

It seems to me not al files are failing, just some files and folders. Is it
possible the files are locked?

Or some users create files that are only accessible by that user. You could
try to apply the read and list permissions again an let it recursively
update the entire the directory tree.

Met vriendelijke groeten / Best regards,
