Ok, I am ready to try debugging. I have compiled the code with the -g
option. I have tried gdb, which I am new to unix debugging, and I am not
sure how to debug the server side - ie. the call to amindexd from amrecover
via the send_command routine (I have a breakpoint in there, but I am not
sure how to set a breakpoint in amindexd when I am debugging amrecover).
Also, can I get the "temporary debugging patches to amindexd to track what
it's doing inside."?
Thanks, Dan

No, but I certainly grep them a lot :-). Our users have a tendency
to not be, shall we say, accurate when they list file names they need
recovered :-).

OK. If things don't get any better, keep asking. Next will probably be
temporary debugging patches to amindexd to track what it's doing inside.
Are you building from source so we can do that? You might want to build
with "-g" so if we need to fire up a debugger to check something out,
it will be ready and willing.
