Hi Tom,

Thanks for that command.  I tried it out and don't see any problems
right off.  Here are the results:

It looks to me like SAMBA is working properly.  I can mount the share
and the smbclient command works fine for reporting the size.  I was also
seeing the size reported correctly in the Amanda logs.
