I would recommend to upgrade because there have been loads of changes in AMANDA and Samba since the versions you have. It is also recommended to compile AMANDA yourself to get the benefits of pre-compile options that are site-specific. You will get assistance, yes. That's what this list is there for. If we find that it is a Samba-problem, we will try to help off-list or on the Samba-list. -- best regards, Stefan Stefan G. Weichinger mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
