So, i think it´s a correct Tape in the slot, and i'm typing
root@fileserver:/usr/local/sbin > ./amrecover
AMRECOVER Version 2.4.2-19991216-beta1. Contacting server on fileserver ...
amrecover: Unexpected server end of file

The amrestore command is working fine, but it is to hard to select some files
that must be rerstored. I think amrecover is better, because it browse the
Database for the files (and i can select the files i need?) that i need.
But what an error is this?
