Do a backup to a Windows folder mounted with samba

Asked by Axel Seeher

Hi there,

I am trying to use keep in order to backup my files. The backups should be sent to a network drive which sits on a Windows XP machine using NTFS file system. The shared folder was mounted to Ubuntu using standard options.

However, when I try running keep to that folder, I get an error message such as "Exception '[Errno 13] Permission denied:' with an endless list of errors. It seems to come down to problems with a temporarily used file called '5- a.snapshot.gz'.

Any ideas?

Axel

On Firefox, copy, paste on the Address bar, press ENTER :
