Upgrading 2.6 to 3.3 smbclient and amsamba

[Traugott Simon]

Hi there,
for  various reasons I have to upgrade my Debian Squeeze to wheezy. With this 
change the new version of Amanda 3.3.1 comes along and I could not find out how 
to backup my WindowsServers for now on.

With 2.6 everything was done with smbclient /etc/amandapass and the following 
dumptype definition.

dumptype root-tar {
    program "GNUTAR"
    comment "root partitions dumped with tar"
    compress client fast
    index yes
    priority medium
    auth "bsdtcp"
}

Do I have to change anything on this practice according to Amanda 3.3? 
I would like to exclude two files in two different directories in order to have 
less errors. The problem is that the diretories itself have to be backed up.

So I thought I could do this as follows:

dumptype root-tar {
    program "GNUTAR"
    comment "root partitions dumped with tar"
    compress client fast
    index yes
    priority medium
    auth "bsdtcp"
    exclude "/System/SQLBasys/Log/*"
    exclude "/System/SQLBasys/Data/*"

}


Does this work? 

And what is about this amsamba program I read about? Do I have to use it or 
not???

Thanks
