For those that are interested this is how got things to work: On the Mac Mini I edited /etc/smb.conf and put in this:
[backup] path = /Volumes/Server-Backup writeable = yes Then I restarted Windows File Sharing by going to System Preferences->Sharing and then turning off Windows File Sharing and then turning it back on. Then, on my server, I mounted the Mini's drive with this command: /usr/sbin/mount_smbfs //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/backup /mnt/backup Now I'm using this script to do a level 0 dump: /sbin/dump 0aufL - / | bzip2 >/mnt/backup/root-dump-l0.bz2 /sbin/dump 0aufL - /tmp | bzip2 >/mnt/backup/tmp-dump-l0.bz2 /sbin/dump 0aufL - /usr | bzip2 >/mnt/backup/usr-dump-l0.bz2 /sbin/dump 0aufL - /var | bzip2 >/mnt/backup/var-dump-l0.bz2 Once I see that this is working well, I'll probably set up folders for a weekly level 0 and dailys level 9's. Thanks to Chuck for the hint on adding the drive in the Mini's smb.conf file. ------------------------------ Mike Loiterman grantADLER Tel: 630-302-4944 Fax: 773-442-0992 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0xD1B9D18E _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
