Hadi, Thank you for choosing me to write too, it would probably help though in include the amanda-users list as many have greater expertise than I.
1) I had issues with the glue script when I first installed it, I changed the script itself run run under k-shell. 2) What version of mtx software did you install ? You say the mtx software works properly by itself ? My binary is /usr/local/sbin/mtx, I believe that is the default installation location. What are the results of running mtx with its various options ? Results of inventory, inquiry and other basic commands ?
