Hi Guys

 

I am running two RHEL boxes, each day I am rsyncing some data from my primary server to my secondary server.

 

I am rsyncing the entire /home partition.

 

On my primary server there are about 8 samba shares for data that the clients can access all the samba shares point to various sub-directories within /home.� My issue is that on my secondary server I cant connect to the shares from a windows workstation.

 

My smb.conf file is exactly the same as my primary server and to test I have created a test mount in /mnt/test and I can connect to that fine.� It appears that the issue is all around the fact that these directories that have been created with rsync.

 

My rsync command is: rsync -arzgopulv --delete /home root@192.168.9.2:/

 

My smbd.log file says: '/home/folder/folder/folder does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [akemail] Error was Permission denied.

 

I can see the folder in samba I have forced the user as root and I have chmodded the folder to 777.� Access from the console to these files and folders works fine.

 

Has anyone got any other ideas that I can try?


Thanks


Cameron
