Subject:	Using smbtar
=============================================================================

Please see the readme and the man page for general info.

1) Follow the samba installation instructions.

2) If all goes well, test it out by creating a share on your PC (called
backup for example) then doing something like,

  ./smbtar -s mypc -t /dev/rmt/0ubn -x backup

substituting whatever your tape drive is for the -t option, or set your
tape environmental variable.

If all does not go well, feel free to mail the author (poultenr@logica.co.uk)
about bug reports / help / money / pizza / etc.

3) Read the man page and the NOTES file for more information

4) Work smbtar into your usual nightly backup scheme (presuming you
have one :-}).


NOTE:

If you have problems with smbtar then it's probably best to contact the
author Ricky Poulten (poultenr@logica.co.uk).
