Unfortunately, my misfortune extends to more than just one SCO system. I have built a
GNU tar on the system, and rerun configure (--with-gnutar=/usr/local/bin/tar) after
"make distclean". With the following dumptype defined in amanda.conf on the tape
server I assume I am good to go.
define dumptype SCOcvs-tar {
global
program "GNUTAR"
comment "SCO cvs dumped with tar"
compress client best
index
exclude list "/usr/local/etc/amanda/BackUp1/exclude.gtar"
priority high
}
Thanks,
