The subject says it all. My amanda tape server is running Mandrake 9.0.
Everything has been running great on this box for about a year backing
up a remote linux server and a remote windowsNT server.

this:
[root@ruby dev]# ls -l sg2

in hopes that it would
fix the chg-zd-mtx problem.
The system is Mandrake 9.0
