Thanks for the help.
As it turns out, I had the wrong machine ("ozzy") in the share directory
location. The share name is "ozzybkup" and is located on vedder. I
updated
the following and it works:
disklist contains: vedder //vedder/ozzybkup windows-test
/etc/amandapass contains: //vedder/ozzybkup amanda%<same_as_smbpasswd>
BTW, I am using user "amanda" instead of the default backup in samba. I
created this amanda user on the Win2000 machine, as well as in
smbpasswd. This amanda user is different from the one on the unix hosts
(gave it a different password).
Thanks again,
Terry
