Jaime, The first example is an incremental backup (the -N option to smbclient tarmode), and the second is a full.
What are your settings for $Conf{SmbClientFullCmd}, $Conf{SmbShareName}, $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} and $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} on the two machines? Also, have you consider running rsync instead? While it requires a client-side installation, its performance is higher and the include/exclude logic is clearer and more flexible.
