Thanks Christoph, I didn't realize that I was using "sash" (in fact I've
never heard about it) as I thought I was using "bash". This may be the
cause of the problem.
Anyway, I have found some rpm files for amanda and have installed it
successfully. The next step is to see if it actually works on the
autochanger so I might have further questions later on.
Thanks for your prompt response anyway.
Regards,
Hien.
