Hello,
we are running Backup Exec 11d on a w2k3 R2 server. Our Windows LAN is managed through Active Directory. I have a new desktop running CentOS 5.3 (RHEL free clone), which name is "cedrat02centos64"; I incorporated it into AD with Samba. I installed Services for Unix on my AD servers, and configured Samba so that the Linux logins are authenticated by Active Directory.
I wanted to backup cedrat02centos64 using Ralus. I downloaded Ralus from :
http://esdownload.symantec.com/akdlm/CD/MTV/BEWS_11D.7170_LINUX-UNIX-MAC-NT4_AGENTS.2.tar.gz
it installed correctly. The agent installation log ends with :
"VxIF::Info:: RALUS successfully configured on cedrat02centos64.cedrat.lan
VxIF::Info:: RALUS successfully installed on cedrat02centos64.cedrat.lan
VxIF::Info:: RALUS has been successfully installed on all target hosts.
"
I started it with :
/etc/rc.d/init.d/VRTSralus.init start
I did not see any error, but I am unsure whether it produces logs; the only file I can see is
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 20 12:15 /var/VRTSralus/beremote.service.log
Then I went on our server; my CentOS desktop is seen by Backup Exec, I see its name in the computer's list, under 'Active Directory Domains'. But if I try to browse the shares list I get an error (in french) :
"Echec de l'accès à cedrat02centos64"
Compte de connexion : CEDRAT-RECH\adminc
Accès refusé"
that is to say : access denied
CEDRAT-RECH\adminc is our network admin account; I tried to add as new acounts into Backup Exec : adminc, root : without success
I don't have any firewall up on cedrat02centos64, nor have I any firewall between the R2 server and my desktop.
in nsswitch.conf, I have :
passwd: files winbind
shadow: files winbind
group: files winbind
Does anybody have a suggestion ?
Best regards
