Dale,

   The error was because I took out the client: key from all default.conf
files trying to follow Andy's statement that all he has in those files is
the tree: key. So I just put in client: salmo in each one and that overcame
this error.

   I've been using --dry-run, but tried the --init without it. This time
there was neither foul nor harm. Now the error I get is:

[r...@salmo ~]# dirvish --vault a-boot --dry-run
a-boot:default:20091215-0638: ERROR: no images for branch default found

   I think it's because I still do not have the vault paths correct. For
example, the above complete path is:

/media/hd0/backup/dirvish/server/a-boot/dirvish/default.conf

and I may mis-understand where the default.conf file should be. Do I need a
second dirvish/ directory, under each vault directory? In my ignorance it
seems that would cause the error I see.

Thanks,

Rich
