I just added some information about this to the wiki: http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Version_compatibility Please correct me if I got something wrong :) Noticed one thing wrong on the wiki: so long as one uses oldamrecover on 2.5 clients when communicating with a 2.5 server. Shouldn't this say: so long as one uses amoldrecover on 2.5 clients when communicating with a 2.4 server. -- Thanks for the hint to use amoldrecover, but I'm still having problems with it: # amoldrecover -C Daily -s backup -t backup AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1p1.
