>Is there any way to duplicate a tape with amanda?

It depends on what you mean by "duplicate".  If you mean "write a second
tape at the same time as the first with exactly the same data", that's
not available at the moment but will be easy to do with some code now
in the sources.  Someone just needs to write the "driver".

If you mean "make a copy of an Amanda tape after a run", you can do that
with a simple shell script and "dd" loop, or jens persson just posted
a new Amanda program, amclone, that will probably do what you want.
Look at the mailing list archives around 21-Mar for "amclone".
