I keep getting these messages with every backup report:

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
unixservername     //windowsservername/sharename lev 0 STRANGE 

and then a little later on:

FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:

/-- unixservername     //windowsservername/sharename lev 0 STRANGE
sendbackup: start [unixservername://windowsservername/sharename level 0]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/local/bin/smbclient
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/local/bin/smbclient
-f... -
sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz
sendbackup: info end
? Domain=[DOMNAME] OS=[Windows Server 2003 3790 Service Pack 1]
Server=[Windows Server 2003 5.2]
| tar: dumped 14 files and directories
| Total bytes written: 735498752
sendbackup: size 718261
sendbackup: end
\--------

Presumably this is because of the line:

? Domain=[DOMNAME] OS=[Windows Server 2003 3790 Service Pack 1]
Server=[Windows Server 2003 5.2]

Which is displayed as a "header" whenever one executes smbclient, either via
amanda or manually from the command line.

There is no real error here, e.g., no open files that aren't getting backed
up, etc.  So, is there a way to avoid this?

TIA,
