smbclient & dd
you know I am told to get an image of the whole ubuntu system on my server shared folder.
If you have used dd before to get an image of the occupied space on the system please lemme know bout your command.
(I preferably want dd to only get an image of the occupied file system not the free space)

Well, here comes the next part. You know, though I can view my server shared folder graphically, I cannot do it using shell command. The server has the following path:
Code:
smb://username@safe/mysharedfolder

(username and mysharedfolder have the same name)

I tried different commands for smbclient to connect to the server but it failed. Any helps would be appreciable.
