Thanks so much for the help..i was out of town and I am going to try to do this today, I have a few questions: (please be kind enough to understand that I am a newbie and might ask some stupid questions:
1)	I do not believe I have a “group name”, how can I be sure about that, if I do not have one, then what should I place there.

your group name (gid) should be the same as your user nam, a simple way to find out is to open a terminal and type ls -la, this will show your user and group names.

2)	If I try to do multiple computers then it will be like: [share1] (or whatever name I call the share, [share2], etc…and in the comment I am assuming this is a comment about the share, ie comment = computer of room 1

The comment is only for what the directory is for, eg: if you only back up one computer to that directory, the comment could be "backup of willy" I name my computers then alias the ip address in /etc/hosts, that way I don't have to remember an ip address.

3)	I am assuming that /etc/rsyncd.secrets is hide since there is were we create the password, is this something similar to what I created (see below) and if weverything works well, then I can just delete from the one I did before the lines of the /etc/fstab  and the file on /root/.credentials that hold the password..(please see below)…Thanks for the help..Rafael

the rsyncd.secrets file has a permission of 600, this only allows the owner read/write permissions, in this case the owner is root, so only he can read the file, if you try to read it as another user, permission will be denied.

max connections = 2
log file = /var/log/rsync.log
timeout = 300
[share]
comment = private share
path = /home/share
read only = no
list = yes
uid = user name
gid = user group
auth users = user name
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
Save the file as /etc/rsyncd.conf. You’ll see in the above file that I have create a directory in /home called share, to create the directory you can either use nautilus as root and create the directory, press Alt-F2 and type:
gksu nautilus
or create it in a terminal:
sudo mkdir /home/share
I’ve given the directory a permission of 700 so that only the creator and root can access the files, thus keeping them private from other users. I find the easiest way to set permissions is in a terminal To make sure you are the owner type:
sudo chown -R user:user /home/share
then change the permissions:
sudo chmod -R 700 /home/share
The next step is to create /etc/rsyncd.secrets for the user’s password. The user should be the same as above with password the one used to log into the Ubuntu server/computer.
gksu gedit /etc/rsyncd.secrets
the contents should be:
user:password
Next set the permissions for /etc/rsyncd.secrets:
sudo chmod 600 /etc/rsyncd.secrets
Finally start/restart xinetd
sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
That’s all you need to do to set up the rsync-daemon on your Ubuntu system.
Sudo nano /etc/fstab  add this to the end line and create a memo like # automatic samba
//192.168.1.101/serverbackup /home/rgotten/mnt   cifs  credentials=/root/.credentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
//192.168.1.106/Charts /home/rgotten/charts.windows   cifs  credentials=/root/.credentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
//192.168.1.105/Myplasticare\040Pictures /home/rgotten/FrontDesk.Windows   cifs  credentials=/root/.credentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
Note \040 is a to mark the space between the two words at Myplasticare Pictures

Remember to create a protected password:

/root/.credentials is a text file that contains your smb username and password. To create the file, type:
Code:
sudo nano /root/.credentials
and add the following text:
Code:
username=your_smb_username
password=your_smb_password
Now, make the file only readable by root:
Code:
sudo chmod 600 /root/.credentials
6. At this point, you can either reboot or reload your fstab:
Code:
sudo shutdown -r now

You don't need the samba section for the backup, if you already have the other shares mounted. then all you really need to do is use rsync to backup selected directories. You could use something like: rsync -av /home/rgotten/FrontDesk.Windows /backup-directory, then create a cron job to automate the whole thing.

Using DeltaCopy you don't need the Windows share to be mount on the computer running Ubuntu.
