Does it means that I have not configured Samba currectly? Any examples on how to test Samba are mostly welcome

In /etc/amandapass you find lines like:

Hostname+share  username%Password  DOMAIN
=============== =================  =========
//homeros/d$    amanda%secret      MYDOMAIN


This implies that you have a you have a MS-Windows PC named "homeros", which is part of the domain "MYDOMAIN", and you have created a domainaccount with administrative priviledges named "amanda", wich password "secret".

To test this with smbclient, do:

smbclient '//homeros/d$' -U 'amanda%secret' -W MYDOMAIN

And you should get the "smb: >"-prompt, and type e.g. "dir"
to list the files.

If you add on each PC a local user instead of the domain user,
then you should not add the MYDOMAIN value to /etc/amandapass,
and test without the "-W MYDOMAIN" option for smbclient, of course.
