I'm using amanda 2.4.2p2 to backup several computers without any problem, except for 1 client machine. That client runs the sorcerer distribution with a 2.4.19-pre1-ac2 kernel and gtar 1.13.25. The used size of the /home partition is approximately 2.5 GB. This is the output from amanda
/-- host /home lev 0 FAILED [/bin/tar returned 2] sendbackup: start [host:/home level 0] sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/tar sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/gzip -dc |/bin/tar -f... - sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz sendbackup: info end ? gtar: gid_t value 4294967295 too large (max=16777215) | Total bytes written: 2218362880 ? gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors sendbackup: error [/bin/tar returned 2] \-------- The other clients, though running a different distribution, also have the same version of gtar and comparable partition sizes. Any idea how to solve this problem? Thanks! Stefan
