I have a cron script that I run nightly to backup my wife's Windoz PC, both the C and D partiitons. The script does the following: for DIR in "c d" do mount if successful cd mount point tar czf target --exclude-from=exclude-file . cd / umount mount point done The problem is SMB failure while mounting the second drive. Backing up Windows xxx d to /home1/xxx session request to XXX failed session request to *SMBSERVER failed SMB connection failed I have tested the script, and if I comment out the tar, the mount works fine. This only fails when backing up both Windows shares in a back to back sequence. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
