This all sounds great. Not to sound like an overworked developer, but
could you all please update the FAQ entry accordingly? ;)

This is a little off-topic but relevant since we're all more or less in
the same position in that we're using tape arrays of some sort...
The DLT-8000 drive in my L9 has been running slower and slower over the
past week, and now is not working at all. I suspect all the rollers, etc.

For example, in your rc.conf
file you may have:
/bin/mt -f /dev/nst0 defcompression 0
/bin/mt -f /dev/nst0 defblksize 0
I think this probably gets too specific.
The error could just as easily occur because amanda is upgraded to new
binaries which are not compiled for the proper blocksize at

I am trying to build 2.6.0p1 on a Ubuntu machine. As far as I know this
machine is the latest version of Ubuntu. The configure script fails on the
check for glibc version 2.2.0 or newer. I am curious if this version of
glibc is so new that it would not be in the Ubuntu stable release yet?

I haven't followed this too closely, but are there some takeaway

/bin/mt defcompression 0
/bin/mt defblksize 0

The "DUMPS DID NOT COMPLETE" message comes when no FINISH log message
(except planner) is seen. If you compare the logfile in the previous
emails to your own, successful logfiles, you'll see that line is
missing.
The most likely cause is a segfault or other bug in the driver. The
task, then, is
This funny port number is coming from the NAT operations in your
firewall. There are ways to maneuver Amanda around that, but you
might be better served to simply use ssh authentication, if that's an
option. Otherwise, you should either set up a static NAT on the
firewall or set the Amanda client
I've determined my drive can label tapes but can't read old
tapes. I get the Input/Output error whenever trying to read a
previously labeled tape or dd out anything. However, if I re-label
the tape it works again. Does this indicate a failing drive? Any
other ideas?
Thanks,
