I have amanda 2.4.5 install on a FC4 machine. I plan to use this machine to 
backup several Windows 2K and XP machines. It is replacing a machine that is 
running amanda 2.4.4 running on FC2. 

The new machine has smbclient 3.0.14a-2, while the old has 3.0.10-1.fc2. I have 
not been able to get the new machine to backup a windows machine yet. It seems 
to hang while getting the estimates. So, I tried to issue the du command from 
the smb prompt after I connected to a share. du seems to take forever. After 10 
minutes, it has not timed out.

I searched the samba site and google for issues with du in the smbclient, and 
found nothing. Have others run into this problem? Clearly, it is not and amanda 
issue, but I thought this group might be able to provide some useful 
information.

I built amanda from source, but I installed samba from rpm.

Thanks
