Jon,
>I'm very nieve about Windows. 25 years unix, 0.5 year win2K.
Forget it, while one can aquire experience about Unix, one can never
about Microsoft. Well yes, one can acquire ONE experience about
Microsoft, that is "there is nothing to be learned about that GUI
interruption handler"
After 25 years of Unix, I beleive the experience is unbearably
painfull for you :) Why not installin FreeBSD on that box :)
OK more serious:
>From your Amanda/samba box, you should try something like
smbclient //machine/share -d 0 -U backup -E -W domain -c "archive 1;recurse;du"
or
smbclient //machine/share -d 0 -U backup%password -E -W domain -c "archive
1;recurse;du"
As far as I understood, a W2000 machine is always in a domain, even if
it is all by itself in that domain. On the W2K mnachine control
pannel/system/network identification should tell you the thing.
Once one of the above command is working, you have it configured, then
put in /etc/amandapass
//machine/share backup%password domain
Be patient, it does work after a while. Don't ask me the rational for
all that, there are none, we are talking about Micrisoft.
