> Use `amrecover', not `amrestore'. But I actually want to restore the archives not individual files. Can I do that with amrecover? I found that I can do something like this though: amrestore -p diskdir/slot30/00002.machine._.3 | \ ssh machine "cat - >~/restore/machine._.2.tar" I just wonder if it's the right way to do it[tm]. Thanks for your help. -- bye, Micha
