Hi,

i´m trying to configure my first backup of a windows host.

smbclient connect from Server to client works with same username and passwort which is set in amandapass

Have you tried to issue an smbclient command? What was the command
like? Did it work?

As user backup i tried:

"smbclient -U username%password //servername/sharedfolder-name"

I could connect and could make a ls.

What type of Windows are you using? smblient command changed from W98
to W2K/WXP.

Windows 2003 Server

"selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK"

What do you have in /tmp/amanda/selfcheck.xxx.debug

In that file you should find the smbclient command that amanda try to
use, does it work if you try it manually?

There is no such file. All permissions on /tmp/amanda seems to be correct.

drwxrwxrwt  5 root root  4096 2007-07-10 11:31 tmp

ls -la tmp/

drwx--S---  2 backup backup 4096 2007-07-10 11:31 amanda

Have deleted the amanda folder, after the next amcheck it was new created.

Thanks
