I am getting a report from Amanda version 2.4.4p1-20031031 that
basically says that my backup failed. The Amanda server is a RH 7.2
box with SAMBA 3.0 installed. I needed SAMBA 3.0 in order to backup a
Win2k3 server with Active Directory. The backup was actually
performed. All of the files were backed up. I get the same report for
a Win NT 4.0 server as well. It is not a major issue as the backup is
working, and I can tell from one of the lines in the report that data
actually was backed up, but it would be nice if the report worked like
it did in the past. I have read about needing a patch for SAMBA and I
have read about needing a patch for Amanda. Since I have the lastest
snapshot of Amanda that should work with SAMBA 3.0, do I still need to
patch SAMBA? Has anyone else run into this quirk?

Below is a report from my NT 4.0 server. The tape size and runtime
would indicate that the backup was a success.
