Well, it doesn't appear to be -strictly- a Samba problem, as from the
command line if I do (on the Amanda server as the user 'amanda'):

-bash-2.05b$ smbclient -U Administrator //snapper/dfs
Password:
smb: \> cd \home\faculty\bryant\bryantback-brblt\Images\
smb: \home\faculty\bryant\bryantback-brblt\Images\> ls
  .                                   D        0  Sat Nov 22 11:02:31

smb: \home\faculty\bryant\bryantback-brblt\Images\> quit

...it works fine.  So it's either the way I configured Amanda to use
Samba, or the way that Amanda invokes Samba, or the way that Amanda,
Samba, and Win2k3 Active Directory play together, I think.
