Hello, (I know this is not part of amanda's default behavior so if this is not ok for this list please let me know)
I am having much trouble getting amanda to work with gpg. I am little confused and could use some pointers. I have re-compiled the client and server and installed the new binaries. I ran amdump and everything appeared to be working I saw the gtar process running, I saw the gpg process, I saw the gzip process running, I have a "gpg.debug" file in /tmp. The image appeared to write to tape correctly. The email output showed no signs of failure. Here is the issue. I can not restore from the image on tape no matter what I try. The error is: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format gpg: decrypt_message failed: eof" ( I assume here that either the wrong data, or corrupted data made it to tape, other issues??) Also the /tmp/amanda/gpg.debug file is still on the disk after the backup completed. Here is the odd part. I copied the gpg.debug file to my backup server and manually ran: "gpg -d --homedir=/var/backups/.gnupg/ -r [EMAIL PROTECTED] gpg.debug | tar tvfp -" And it worked perfectly. So I guess my questions are: Why does this setup write to /tmp/amanda/gpg.debug? Why was this not written to tape? Why was /tmp/amand/gpg.debug not removed? What was written to tape? Thank you again for all the awesome assistance in advance. Andrew
