I'm not sure how accurately varoius operating systems can determine
the current file, though, so this might be a dangerous property. It's
also currently very difficult to supply properties via amrestore,
since it doesn't have a configuration file.

The only way to get this error is if amandad doesn't get amindexd as
argument.
But it is listed in the server_args of /etc/xinetd.d/amanda
You should recheck that file, verify that it doesn't have character you
don't see.
Verify that you doesn't have an amandad process already running.

My interpretation of this error is that it couldn't find the service
named amindexd. Is this something new in 2.5, as in 2.4 it was named

Amrestore only supports one tape at a time, so you can change tapes with the
same TTY.
Amrecover and amfetchdump know how to use the changer now, so you don't need

I am trying to restore a folder from a tape in a previous cycle (last
night had a level 0 of the disk, but the folder was deleted prior). I
have a tape changer and read that amrestore doesnt work with tape
changers. My dumptypes are gnutar, so I probably can't use amrecover. Is
this correct
actually, i found how to put the desired tape into the active slot of
the changer. But when i do amrestore /dev/nst0 lollipop /files1 I get

Any idea how to fix this? Problem is lots of Windows folders that we want
to add to the disklist contain spaces.
Additional thought:
Read man amanda, section DISKLIST FILE.
You could use disknames without spaces, like in
amclient mydiskname /opt/test directory
Tried this already:
amrecover setdisk /opt/test\ directory
501 Disk myhost:\/opt/test\\ directory\ is not in your disklist.
