It does not make any difference if your client is cygwin or any other

individual files.
Beside, it is a way better idea to backup any file in a directory

Hello:
Yes, the server is the "router" between the two subnets.
How do I configure the /etc/xinetd.d/amanda "only_from" section? Here is
what I have (example...):
only_from = 1.2.3.0 4.5.6.0
Should this allow access from both subnets? 1.2.3.0 works fine but not

Hi,
It's not a bug in tar, it's a bug in amanda. The new file format is not
compatible whit the way we read it.
