I get something similar happening on my 2.4.2 system. On my w2k/cygwin box, "winnie", gtar is in a different location than on my tapehost, "butch". Yet if I put a copy of gtar on butch, in the same location as on winnie, then try to do an amrecover it still says the gtar program is not there. -- Jon H.
