Amanda 2.3.0.5-Samba 1.9.16p11 PC backups...

[Ernie Oporto]

Seems like I found another pointer to the problem.

In syslog, I am getting this message:
Jul 28 10:22:53 shokk sendsize[4100]: [sendsize : error in smbtar diskline,
zero length password]

In no other file was there an indication of this.  Am I missing something
in amanda.conf to tell AMANDA to look in /etc/amandapass for the password
or that these are PC backups?  Currently, permissions of that file are "600".

The sharename in /etc/amandapass matches the name in amanda's disklist
file.  When I do an smbtar by hand and type the password, it works fine.
Somewhere, that is my missing step.  Some working samples or samba.conf,
disklist, and /etc/amandapass might help me out here.
