I had written a shell script to handle a similar situation. IIRC it went something like this - #!/bin/bash -x export PASSWD=foobar smbmount //name-of-win-machine/share-name /mnt -o username=administrator rsync /mnt /backup/name-of-win-machine/share-name The PASSWD variable is set to the value of the administrator password. Do check out the man pages of smbclient and smbmount. Hope this helps. -- Pai ================================================ To subscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subscribe in subject header To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe in subject header Archives are available at http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd%40wpaa.org =================================================
