I am going to install (well, if all goes well, that is ;-) ) Amanda on an Open Suse 10.2 the day after tomorrow; I know Novell have dropped smb support from the kernel. Does anyone know whether there are any pitfalls if SMB support is not compiled in in the Linux kernel as far as Amanda is concerned ?
Amanda uses smbclient to backup Windows hosts, which (on RH based systems, at least) is part of the samba-client package. It neither has nor needs any kernel support.
