Hi, I think I've managed to setup amanda to backup my desktop PC from a central backup server. amcheck returns all is well, so I decided to run "amdump daily".
I've attached the dump report below. Could someone point me in the directions of some diagnostics ? (BTW, I'm incredibly impressed by the faq-o-matic & the large number of possible error messages explained in the man pages...I just wish this report had a few error messages in it).
