Hello,

I've setup succesfully an Amanda backup host which retrieves remote
Windows shares through smbclient and write them to tape stream.

It seems to work like a charm from the mail report, but amverify
still gets errors:

It can't restore the EXCHANGE$ share, even if it seems to backup
succesfully. What can it be?

Any help greatly appreciated,
Fabio
