The first command that you gave seems to have worked. At least amrecover doesn't complain about any missing index. Next question, though. With 'AMRECOVER Version 2.4.2p2-tapeio' how do I tell it what tape device to use? amrecover> extract amrecover: warning: using /dev/null as the tape device will not work There is no tape device and I can't give it 'file:/home/amanda/dumps/' because it tries to parse that as host:device! Thank very much for all the help. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group
