Re: [BackupPC-devel] SMB Windows share not backing up - NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED listing \System Volume Information\SRM\*

[Marc G. <m.g...@li...>]

My distro is Ubuntu 16.04.3

I try to upgrade just backuppc, and it's telling me that "backuppc is already the newest version (3.3.1-2ubuntu3.3)."

I'm not sure on how I can upgrade backuppc to 3.3.2 or later as you suggested?

Sincere apologies for the late reply.

You mention that version 3.3.1 doesn’t work with 4.3 of smbclient.

How do I downgrade the smbclient, please?

Unfortunately, that highly depends on your distro and/or flavor or how you've installed samba or smbclient in the first place. For some distros, it's as simple as specifying the version to the package manager or using the recommended downgrade path, for others, it can be much more complicated, requiring building from source or alternative repositories.

It might be simpler to upgrade to version 3.3.2 (or later) instead.

IIRC, the issue is that smbclient changed its reporting, so that BackupPC has trouble recognizing when the files are actually successfully retrieved, when in fact they are.
