Ummm, wrong file.  I was asking for a copy of the sendbackup*debug file.

Agreed.

Huh?  You said earlier you saw the index program being invoked in
those files.

Also, I misunderstood something you said and thought you were using GNU
tar.  But the test you did was clearing using "restore".  So that means
the script I sent will not be helpful (unless you mess with it a lot).

What happens if you do this:

  mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
  /usr/local/sbin/amrestore -p /dev/nst0 bertha /boot \
    restore -tvf - > /tmp/index-file
