Hi Again whats does it say on the client's Linux of causer /tmp/amanda amandad.date.debug amcheck.date.debug
I assume you have created the similar directories for your windoze box. Also can you run tcpdump to dump traffic on a network. # tcpdump host <amanda_client> > /tmp/log_of_your_dump_packets I used tcpdump to check my client servers status and I thus was bale to sort my firewall which isn't your issue I know. I assume you are looking for tests to do from your windoze So I guess I am stuck all my windoze clients are only accessible from their work group and I backup them individualy with the ntbackup utiltiy as they are really only running standalone apps.
