what happens if you run:

smbclient //NAME/directory -U user%password

or

smbclient //NAME/directory -U password

that is essentially what amanda is doing in the two different cases you've
tried (plus a few more smbclient arguments that shouldn't affect the
behaviour you're experiencing).  if those commands do not work as
expected, then solve the samba problem and amanda should work as expected.

a note about this should probably be written in the docs/SAMBA file
because 99% of the problems people have with amanda/samba backups are
samba problems that should be debugged independently of amanda.
