As you were able to connect without specifying the dorkgroup/domain I
would simply leave that entry empty for testing.

Well, you need several ports opened for smb/cifs-connections, but if you
can connect from the commandline, this should also work from within
AMANDA. Go and have a closer look at your debugfiles, usually in
/tmp/amanda. You should find the command AMANDA generates, by "grep
smbclient" or similar. Maybe this helps ...
