Using ntbackup from win2k or winXP ws, an "access denied" error pops up when selecting a samba share as the destination for the backup and attempting to proceed. (X: is not a valid drive or you do not have access) This wasn't the case with 3.0.2, but was also there in 3.0.3. (3.0.4 is unknown) It appears that ntbackup tries to OPEN the share directory, but instead of returning an error inticating that "this is a directory, not a file", samba returns "access denied" which is then handled and displayed by the application! (i may not be entirely correct about this - this is how it appears to me) To try to reproduce, just use ntbackup.exe to create a backup file on any samba share.
