I see the same thing on Ubuntu. I've been ignoring it for a long time
and had no problems. But then I don't have anything in the .gvfs
directory. I believe it is part of the gnome virtual file system. The
problem is in the permissions of .gvfs. It's a non-fatal error, as the
dump summary will indicate.

As for the Google Chrome socket, tar ignores sockets, and for good
reason. I also ignore that.

Hi Charles
Ok but i think that those files can be excluded somehow so that the report
can be kept neat.

How to add an exclude list?
Thank You

Backup programs like dump, tar, smbclient generate lots of messages that are
informational fluff.  Amanda has hard coded lists of things to not worry
about.  Others amanda knows to print error reports about.

When one of the programs changes its fluff, sometimes even simple spacing
changes, amanda may recognize the message as one to report as an error or
ignore.  These get reported as strange.

Some future version of amanda will have adjusted for the samba changes.

Are there any plans to allow additional ignore patterns to be
specified in the amanda.conf file so that they could be filtered
out on the server side so as not to be reported as strange?
Editing source code and recompiling seems like overkill.

Is this an early 2.4 kernel?  There are known (bad) interactions between 
early 2.4 kernels and old(er) versions of dump.  Either a) upgrade to a 
recent kernel and the most recent version of dump/restore (available at 
http://dump.sourceforge.net) or b) switch to tar.

Well, the weird thing is that I already replaced the hard drive once
because I was thinking that it could only be a HD problem, but the problem
still persists. What I also tryed is to do a manual dump on that machine
and that works fine... So that sounds really strange... Any ideas ?

It isn't  caused by amanda.  It is hard drive problem.
You have to try repair command at your drive, or replase hard drive.

 However there is small amounts of activity going on during the time

 errors here?

Maybe you want to dump ... | restore ... by hand to identify to files on
fly and set the nodump-Flag onto them (chattr +d).
