are trying to do most or all of Amanda's j

Good to hear that the backup worked this time.
Of course, Windows client should not crash. If it happens again,
please do the following:
1. Remove "maxdumps 1" from the dumptype. We used to have this
problem. I think it is fixed but I would
prefer to avoid it since the default for maxdumps is 1.

Gene, I thought about this approach, and wasn't sure it would work.
Thanks for the advise.
I understand you have asked me some questions and that is actually making me
