You probably wouldn't have to put it back if amanda were in the distro ;-) (although that is not a solution!).
I have amanda srpms that compile and install fine on 8.x (but not quite tested yet ...) ... anyone interested? But my other question is, are system uid's guaranteed to be the same across installs? I changed an 8.0 mail server to use ldap files in nsswitch.conf, with ldap running on another 8.0 box, and half the services didn't restart properly due to uid differences .... Is Mandrake 8.2 going to be LDAP/NIS friendly? Buchan Brian J.
