I have windows servers which I am successfully backing up on Amanda
residing on a solaris 8 server. But I get a lot of errors which I
need to reduce if at all possible. I have checked the Amanda docs and
it seems to talk about mostly the "exclude" option. But this exclude
option seems to entail a exclude file which resides on the client
machine which only seems more applicable for *nix machine. Any help
greatly appreciated - check out these loopy messages :

Well, I could have sworn I answered to a similar message a few days
ago, but I can't even find my own reply.
I must have been dreaming :-) .
Here I go again:
You have to recompile, using the IGNORE_SMBCLIENT_ERRORS macro defined,
which enables additional regular expression that you find in the file
client-src/sendbackup-gnutar.c, like this:
$ make distclean
$ CGLAGS=-DIGNORE_SMBCLIENT_ERRORS ./configure --with-user=... etc.
$ make
$ su
# make install
Note the comment in source:
/* This will cause amanda to ignore real errors, but that may be
* unavoidable when you're backing up system disks. It seems to be
* a safe thing to do if you know what you're doing. */
This means: it could hide the fact that your most important file is
not included in the backup.
