Hello...
This is what I got last night:
file -- runtar.20010815001028.debug
runtar: debug 1 pid 920 ruid 33 euid 0 start time Wed Aug 15 00:10:28 2001
/bin/tar: version 2.4.2p2
running: /bin/tar: /bin/tar --create --file /dev/null --directory /www
--one-file-system --listed-incremental
/var/lib/amanda/gnutar-lists/eeyore_www_0.new --sparse
--ignore-failed-read --totals .
file -- runtar.20010815010829.debug
runtar: debug 1 pid 1280 ruid 33 euid 0 start time Wed Aug 15 01:08:29 2001
gtar: version 2.4.2p2
running: /bin/tar: gtar --create --file - --directory /www
--one-file-system --listed-incremental
/var/lib/amanda/gnutar-lists/eeyore_www_0.new --sparse

And the report showed: ... 0 [data timeout] (1:38:28)
