It's not listed as being orphaned (http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp), but you're right, it's way out of date. Too bad. I supposed I'll have to install it from source into /usr/local. I like afbackup. The documentation isn't great, but I need a client-server model for my little home LAN and Amanda seems sort of daunting for a little 2-3 PC home LAN. Gary
