Hello John,
Thank you for your really fast response. I am now some steps ahead, but not
across the river yet...

Good hint - /bin/tar was old, while /usr/local/bin/tar was new, but never used.
Oh well

On the server i use gcc 2.7.2.3 with linux 2.2.13
----configure options--------
#!/bin/bash
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--bindir=/usr/bin \
--sbindir=/usr/bin \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/amanda \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--datadir=/usr/share \
--sharedstatedir=/usr/share \
--localstatedir=/var/lib/amanda \
--with-user=amanda \
--with-group=disk \
--with-rundump \
--with-config=bol \
--with-tape-server=bol \

--with-buffered-dump \

Currently I _CAN_ backup my slave, but deadly slow. The LAN show some activity
every 10 seconds!!! On the server I can see processes like:
6133 pts/1 S 0:00 | \_ sh /usr/bin/amdump bol
6139 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ /usr/lib/amanda/driver bol
6140 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ taper bol
6145 pts/1 S 0:00 | | | \_ taper bol
6141 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ dumper bol
6172 pts/1 S 0:00 | | | \_ /usr/bin/gzip --best
6142 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ dumper bol
6143 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ dumper bol
6144 pts/1 S 0:00 | | \_ dumper bol
6174 pts/1 S 0:00 | \_ sh ./ldump
7505 pts/1 S 0:00 | \_ sleep 10
How can I get rid of these 10 seconds?
