NAME

+ smbtar - shell script for backing up SMB/CIFS shares directly to UNIX tape drives +

SYNOPSIS

+ +

smbtar -s server [-p password] [-x service] [-X] [-d directory] [-u user] [-t tape] [-b blocksize] [-N filename] [-i] [-r] [-l log level] [-v] filenames +

DESCRIPTION

+ +

This program is part of the Samba suite. +

smbtar is a very small shell script on top of +smbclient which dumps SMB shares directly +to tape. +

OPTIONS

+ +

-s server The SMB/CIFS server that the share resides upon. +

+
-x service The share name on the server to connect +to. The default is backup. +

+
-X Exclude mode. Exclude filenames... from tar create or +restore. +

+
-d directory Change to initial directory before restoring +/ backing up files. +

+
-v Verbose mode. +

+
-p password The password to use to access a share. Default: +none +

+
-u user The user id to connect as. Default: UNIX login name. +

+
-t tape Tape device. May be regular file or tape +device. Default: TAPE environmental variable; if not set, a file +called tar.out. +

+
-b blocksize Blocking factor. Defaults to 20. See tar (1) +for a fuller explanation. +

+
-N filename Backup only files newer than filename. Could be +used (for example) on a log file to implement incremental backups. +

+
-i Incremental mode; tar files are only backed up if they +have the archive bit set. The archive bit is reset after each file is +read. +

+
-r Restore. Files are restored to the share from the tar +file. +

+
-l log level Log (debug) level. Corresponds to the +-d flag of smbclient +(1). +

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

+ +

The TAPE variable specifies the default tape device to write to. May +be overridden with the -t option. +

BUGS

+ +

The smbtar script has different options from ordinary tar and tar +called from smbclient. +

CAVEATS

+ +

Sites that are more careful about security may not like the way the +script handles PC passwords. Backup and restore work on entire shares, +should work on file lists. smbtar works best with GNU tar and may +not work well with other versions. +

VERSION

+ +

This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite. +

DIAGNOSTICS

+ +

See the DIAGNOSTICS section for +the smbclient command. +

AUTHOR

+ +

The original Samba software and related utilities were created by +Andrew Tridgell samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. Samba is now developed +by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the +Linux kernel is developed. +

Ricky Poulten poultenr@logica.co.uk wrote the tar extension and +this man page. The smbtar script was heavily rewritten and +improved by Martin Kraemer Martin.Kraemer@mch.sni.de. Many +thanks to everyone who suggested extensions, improvements, bug fixes, +etc. The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another +excellent piece of Open Source software) and updated for the Samba2.0 +release by Jeremy Allison, samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. +
