[Wylug-help] smbclient/smbmount to WinXP admin$ and c$

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi folks

I used to back up Win9x boxes to Linux by connecting to each box using 
smbclient on \\boxname\admin$ and then smbmounting \\boxname\c$ before 
then taring the relevent directories.

I've tried a number of times to do the same with Win XP boxes, but 
always get rejected - see below.  Anyone know how I can do this these 
days?

[root at lcomp4 ~]# smbclient -U administrator //larc9/ADMIN$ ******
Domain=[LARC9] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
[root at lcomp4 ~]# smbclient -U administrator //larc9/C$ ******
Domain=[LARC9] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
[root at lcomp4 ~]#
