smbclient works fine with these shares.  I have compiled amanda again

to

make sure that smbclient support is included.  And when I check with 
amadmin, it is listed correctly.  I have verified and rebuilt the 
/etc/amandapass file.  I used to run amanda backups on the same shares

on my previous backup server (running RedHat 8 and a DLT library), and

it worked fine.

Don't know,
but might the use of "localhost"
in your disklist be the problem.

Hmm. No go with FQDN's, I tried the amanda server's FQDN and also use localhost.localdomain, but it still does not work. It seems as if amanda still does not see the smbclient program. When I run "amadmin DailySet1 version" it does show the smbclient correctly: SAMBA_CLIENT="/usr/bin/smbclient" GNUTAR="/bin/gtar"
and /usr/bin/smbclient by itself works fine. Is there a way to force amanda to the absolute path for smbclient on the command line?
