Hello,

We use AMANDA to full backup (level 0 everyday) our files at Windows
2000 Server by using the smbclient support, but I found that sometimes
it backup all the files but sometimes seems it doesn't!

We have 14G files at one of the server share but sometimes the amanda
reports it only backup 4G of them! The share has 33000 files inside it
but amanda report it only backup 16000 of them!

We found that when the problem happens, there are some strange messages
displayed:
"? SUCCESS - 0 listing \<folder path>*"
Other shares backed up completely won't has such message!

We're using AMANDA 2.4.3b3 and SAMBA 2.2.5, the system is a Debian 2.2
system with Linux kernel 2.2.17. Please help us!


Best Regards,
Charles
