Well,  I have 5 systems set up to backup to the backup server
(datadev).  I have run a successful (I think) amdump.  amverify seems to
think all is well with this tape.  However, I haven't figured out how to
actually recover anything yet.  My amrecover attempt is shown below.  I
did some searching in the faq-o-matic and saw some references to looking
at the /tmp/amanda/amidxtaped debug file, which is not getting created
(part of my problem, I would guess).

-------------

{datadev:root}# amrecover -C Daily 
AMRECOVER Version 2.4.2p2. Contacting server on datadev ...
amrecover: Unexpected server end of file

amverify:

The only files showing up in /tmp/amanda are amandad and amrecover debug
files.
