Hello , I have received a couple of replies with the same answers - thank you to the ones who replied so far. Allow me to ellaborate a bit. I am running amanda right now , but in order to accomplish it , I had to move amanda.conf to /u/amanda/etc/amanda , and call it out with a null conf flag (i.e. /u/amanda/sbin/amcheck '') , then it runs fine. HOWEVER , when I run amdump , it looks for the amanda.conf in the directory where I originally had the file , in other words , /u/amanda/sbin/amdump '' yields - amgetconf: could not find config file "/u/amanda/conf/amanda.conf" Arrgggh I see that amdump is just a shell script , and that I can change the location to match what amcheck expected , but the question is how did this happen , and how can I prevent it on subsequent configurations ??
