Hi!  I've been trying to apply the results from the previous discussion I
initiated to my backup system, but nothing I do seems to get any results (ie,
stopping getting duplicate data from amverify).  The reason this is important is
that some of my bosses want to get copied on the amanda reports, but they don't
want to get the duplicate output.  My cron job currently is (I've rewrapped it a
bit):

mt comp off; /usr/local/amanda/sbin/amdump standard &&
     ((mt status 2>&1 > /dev/null) &&
     (/usr/local/amanda/sbin/amverify standard 2>&1
          >/tmp/amanda/amverify.debug)); mt offline

This is running on FreeBSD, with the shell set to /bin/sh.  I've double checked
the syntax for redirecting stderr to stdout, and it is correct.  I also notice
that only six lines get written to amverify.debug, while I get two copies of the
entire amverify report (one from email to the amanda user, one from cron) -- I'd
like one copy of the report to be put to amverify.debug...

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ricky
