Hi Luz,
start creating a directory with a name that you want to call your backup schedule. The
location depends on your local environment. With me it is
/etc/amanda/regular
when I use "regular" as a name for the backup cycle. At your site it may be different.
There you'll copy the amanda.conf file and the disklist file into. Edit both:
amanda.conf is well explained by comments, make sure you'll use a non rewinding
device: /dev/nst0
In disklist you'll add the shares that you want to back up.
You can get a lot of infos from http://www.backupcentral.com/amanda.html
Don't get desparate, amanda is a fine piece of software, it is worth the effort
getting into it.
Piet
