Hi !

error

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: gss.mumbai.redhat.com: [This client is not configured for samba:
//suhas/C]
ERROR: gss.mumbai.redhat.com: [SMBCLIENT program not available]
Client check: 1 host checked in 10.009 seconds, 2 problems found

amanda-server-2.4.4p1-0.3E
amanda-devel-2.4.4p1-0.3E
amanda-client-2.4.4p1-0.3E

Those RPMs look like they come from two different sources. Amanda
compiles in the location of the various binaries it needs -- if they're
not there when it runs, you'll get the above error.

The easiest way to fix this would be to remove the amanda RPMs and compile
from source.
