You have 3 ways to backup Windows by Amanda:
1. Win32 client: good luck, since its development has been stopped 2 years ago
2. Windows shares and Samba client on your Amanda box: not so good because of 
the rights of the files that are bot backed up
3. Amanda standard client installed under Cygwin on your Windows box: OK, but 
you have to install Cygwin first; and I'm not sure I like this solution, just 
because I have to install a "Linux emulator" on a Windows box (can you imagine 
yourself installing a Wine on your Linux just to make some administrative 
operations? I don't).

In my case, I have adopted 3 different solutions, depending on the boxes I back 
up:
1. Samba
2. Cygwin
3. backup Windows computers with official Windows backup solutions
