from docs/SAMBA:

Example
=======
The Amanda client software and patched Samba is installed on host
'pcserver'. A share to be backed up called 'backupc' is on PC 'thepc'.
The share will be accessed via PC user 'bozo' and password 'f00bar'
and does not require a workgroup.
The entry in the disklist file is:
pcserver //thepc/backupc nocomp-user-gnutar
^ samba installed unix host
^ pc host and share name
^ dumptype must include the tar
option
In /etc/amandapass on the machine 'pcserver':
//thepc/backupc bozo%f00bar
If smbclient requires a workgroup specification (-W), you may add it as
a third argument in /etc/amandapass line:
//thepc/backupc bozo%f00bar NTGROUP
This will cause smbclient to be invoked with -W NTGROUP.
