That depends entirely on what OS is running on the client. It's not by any means a universally available feature. >Markko Also, David, I just noticed this in the output you sent: > ERROR: localhost: [DUMP does not support exclude file] In general, it's a bad idea to list "localhost" in your disklist. It will cause you problems down the road if you need to move your tape server to another machine (Amanda remembers clients by their name, so "localhost" would all of the sudden mean something else), and there is no gain to using "localhost".
