Stefan,

Are you using amsamba? or you are using the old hack that allowed the
program "GNUTAR" to backup samba share?

Your dumptype must have the following lines to use amsamba:

    program "APPLICATION"
    application {
        plugin "amsamba"
    }

afaik I use amsamba, although configured slightly different:

define application app_amsamba {
        plugin "amsamba"
                property "SMBCLIENT-PATH" "/usr/bin/smbclient"
                property "GNUTAR-PATH" "/bin/tar"
                property "AMANDAPASS" "/etc/amandapass"
                property "ALLOW-ANONYMOUS" "guest"
}

define dumptype amsamba {
        comment "per smbclient"
        global
        program "APPLICATION"
        application "app_amsamba"
        dumpcycle 2
}
