Hi,
First question:
today I made a test backup from 8 Servers. The file
size from 5 of the Backups looks ok but the other 3 have a file size < 2MB
(one with 2 MB, one with 64K and one with 1 MB). The size of the Directories
which where in the backup are >300 MB.
Second question

the full dumps for the past 5 Fridays, and full dumps done on the last Friday of the
previous 3 mo

We've just had a disk crash on our Amanda 2.4.3 server on RedHat 7.3
Linux. I had it configured to do tapeless backups onto a different
fileserver (via chg-multi (I think) and the file tapetype. However, I was
shortsighted enough to backup the Amanda config files with Amanda herself.
So, now I a

I'm trying to make Amanda backup my home network (several Linux machines) to
disk. My first plan is to specify a non-existent tape drive (I don't have a
tape drive anymore), and just copy the archives from the holding disk to a
remote disk.
However, I always (for both local and remote

You'll have to open up some high numbered ports. I think its in the
