So a backup strategy of a 1 month cycle containing 1 full back up
followed by incrementals on the same tape is impossible, and unreliable?
I have 8 tapes, and would like to spread them out as much as possible so
that I will have a long time span available on backup. Can you recommend a

Can anyone think of any reason why I can only get one backup on a
tape. The tape is only 38% used, but the amdump report (email) says that
next tape expected is a new tape. If amdump is run again, it reports that
amflush must be used because it can't overwrite the active tape. There is

Will Amanda, using DUMP, stay in a local filesystem if NFS shares
are mounted in the local partition? Example disklist:
hostname/ comp-user
What if something was mounted in /mnt/hostname2 when the backup ran. Would
Dump ignore it? If not, is there anyway to configure Dump
The sendsize.debug on the failing machine does not show a device being

shows "DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda1 (/(dir var)) to standard output. The

running Debian 2
sendsize.x.debug shows that all dumps are failing with:
DUMP: bad sblock magic number
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is reported

be causing this?
Does the lastest release, p2, have the changes in BIND necessary
to make Linux systems work that a CVS version from a few weeks ago would
have? p1 wouldn't work on my Linux machines.

What is required to build amanda-2.4.2p2 on FreeBSD 4.2? I can't
use the ported version because I have a CVS version of amanda installed on
my clients which are all Linux and produced timeout errors with the
version that FreeBSD has ported. I have tried to build p2, but it fails

Those messages repeat a few more times. amanda@Collosys is in
.amandahosts. The configuration of amanda on the client didn't change, as
far as I know. I just did a make install w/ the CVS version.
Thanks

The CVS version works fine. Thanks a lot! Is that a common problem with
Linux clients?

er, it's the clients that generate the invalid arguement
