It may be correct but it looks wrong to me.  Here is a example of a 
disklist entry I use for a Snap server:

chena //snap01/development {
        user-tar
        exclude "Temporary??Not?Backed?Up??"
}

This needs to be accompanied by an entry in /etc/amandapass something 
like:

//snap01/development    backupuser%password    domain
