Multiple Problems Backing Up LINUX! Help!!

[Joe_LeStrange_2]

I am currently having a real bothersome problem trying to backup a Linux server. I have the agent installed so that I should be able to backup /root, /data01, and /data02. I can see everything in root but I can only see files in data01 and data02, no folders are visable.

As a sort of workaround we are trying to use samba shares to backup instead. With the samba shares I can everything including the folders but the problem comes when I want to backup them up. I get:

Error category : Security ErrorsError : a000fe29 - Authentication failed on connection to the server.

Is there anyone out there who has experienced this same problem? Thank you for your time.

Hello,

This happens even though the logon account has sufficient privileges on the Unix/Linux server.

The above issue is observed when VERITAS Backup Exec (tm) is unable to connect to the Unix/Linux server due to wrong entries in the HOSTS file and/or RESOLV.CONF file.

In order to resolve the error perform the following:

1. Remove extra or wrong entries of the Unix/Linux server from the /etc/hosts file
2. Add an entry for Backup Exec Media server in the /etc/hosts file if not already present
3. Remove any wrong entry for the Unix/Linux server from /etc/resolv.conf file
4. Restart Backup Exec Remote Agent for Unix and Linux
