Hi,
Tar stores by default both user/group name and numeric information when
creating an archive.
When creating archives, if --numeric-owner is used, the user/group name
information isn't stored.
When restoring, if --numeric-owner is set, tar will only use the numeric
information from the

Hi Josef,
I don't see a success report? Where did you see it? The dump never got
written to tape, that's what I see from the log below. Amanda never retried
to write it to the second tape, that's a real bug, I will investigated it.

Hi,
I'm trying to test our Amanda setup by restoring files. I can get into
amrecover from the client, browse and list the backed up files, and run
the add command. But when I try to run extract, I get an error after
being prompted for the tape:
amidxtape/tcp unknown protocol - config error?
Looks like an issue with the services. What do the logs say?
Does amcheck run without errors?
Thanks

BTW, the machines in question are the top end of each of these 2 product
