Thanks, i think u nailed it, it could have been that

But putting the ip in the config file did not help, but it worked after i did an mklink /d to the share IP, previously, i had done it to a mapped network drive

Thanks  for the help, appreciate it

Sorry, you mentioned it already...

Another thing comes to mind. There still cannot be more than one user be authenticated from a PC to a Windows "server" simultaneously (stupid win...). Please try to connect to your share via IP address e.g.. \\1.2.3.4\share for Bacula.

Hi Mehrdad,

What is the user your local Bacula agents are running under? Does he have principal rights to access network shares? Does the share even exist in his context?

Hi

I have come up against a seemingly difficult problem

Running Bacula 15.0.2 on a Redhat 9 clone, backing up windows machines(via winows agents) to a network share(well, trying to), so I want to  back up from the windows machines via the FD and SD agents directly to Big Share(which is on another server)

The problem is it does not work, i have a FD and SD agent on the winows machines, if i backup to a local folder it works(on the window machines local disk), i.e Archive Device=<local folder> in device def i bacula-sd.conf

But if i set Archive device=<net work share> or Archive device=<mapped drive> it does not work, and i get

[SE0017]Unable to Stat device .... at z: : Err=No error

[SW0106]Device .... Requested by DIR could not be opened or does not exist


What I have done:

mapped net workshare a drive, fail

used mklink /d to make a symlink to the newowrkshare, fail

tried even running the SD-service under domain admins (just in case it is a case of permissions), fail

I am pretty sure this should be possible, right?? But can't find any thing in the documentation. Anyone who has tried it and knows how to, or has some advice???
