Sorry for the confusion. When I run the amrecover on the TRU64 client Iit looks like this.
amrecover -C <config> -s <backup host>-t <backup host>-d /dev/nst0 This Produces AMRECOVER Version 2.4.2p2. Contacting server on <backup host> ... 220 <backup host> AMANDA index server (2.4.2p2) ready. 200 Access OK Setting restore date to today (2002-02-07) 200 Working date set to 2002-02-07. 200 Config set to <config>. 200 Dump host set to <TRU64 server>. $CWD '/' is on disk '/' mounted at '/'.

Could you post the exact transcript of what you're seeing. According your notes: >3. I do an amrecover on the backup host then use sethost and setdisk to >select the TRU64 server and the partition I wish to restore from. This >works fine I can do an ls and add files to be extracted and etc This doesn't match with "it cant find the index files", so I'm a bit confused about what error you're seeing. John R.
