Aaaah - Merci! That worked!
But why exited Amanda by using the commands
amrestore -p /dev/nst0 gretel | tar -xvf - ./usr/local/sbin/exec or
amrestore -p /dev/nst0 | tar -xvf - ./usr/local/sbin/exec
after searching the first dump on tape?
In the first case Amanda should search in all "gretel"-dumps,
in the second case in all dumps on tape!?
As I remember, in earlier Amanda-versions this was the normal
behaviour, and it's described in the manpages!
Greetings,
Jens
