I am testing a new version of amanda before putting it into play here at
work. The old version was 2.4.2p2. I can do the backups fine (I think),
but when I try to check them with amrecover, I get the following error:
morimoto:/usr/local/src/amanda-2.4.4p4/sbin# ./amrecover -C Progeny01

Hi Everyone.
I am having some touble doing a restore from a client. I backed up
/root on a remote debian box as a test, and it was a success. When I
login to the remote debian box, and try to do a amrecover, the client

AMRECOVER Version 2.4.3. Contacting server on

Kevin Alford started a thread about losing his amanda server

needing to do a restore. The system details pre-crash were

Eric,
Thanks, That worked great. Now I am having a different problem. When I go
