Looking at this...

http://docs.zmanda.com/Project:Amanda_Enterprise_3.0/Zmanda_Windows_Client_Users_Manual

We have a 'template' on the windows client that has the name
"backup" and it lists a couple of directories we wanted to get
to the amanda server.

I'd assumed that the DLE in the server's disklist would invoke the
template's and tar its list of directories back to the server...but
I haven't found that line, don't know if I'm guessing wrong or if
I've managed to overlook it.

Unfortately the windows admin also created a directory by the name
"backup" and put some files in it.

The directory did get to the amanda server, I don't know if it
gets preferential treatment to the template, or my guess is just
plain wrong, or its a server-side syntax issue in the disklist.

The client server connection however is working and I was able
to extract the DLE from tape and unt...no UNZIP the files on the client.
