All the configuration files for whatever backup goes under the same
directory name under /etc/amanda
For example on my system I have a a 'Daily' backup configuration, which
is stored under /etc/amanda/Daily and a 'Weekly' on stored under
/etc/amanda/Weekly and so forth
All the config files for Daily are stored under '/etc/amanda/Daily',
this includes:
disklick
amanda.conf
exclude.list (this is optional)
You keep the amanda.conf under the same name as the directory name,
this can be called whatever you like,but as I mentioned all the
configurations files for *that* backup must be kept under tis own
directory name.
Hope that clears some of the confusion up.
