I'm moving over to use SAMBA based AMANDA backups, and have to start using gnutar.
If my amcheck tells me... ERROR: edinburgh: [GNUTAR program not available] ERROR: edinburgh: [can not read/write /usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists/.: No such file or directory] Client check: 1 host checked in 1.178 seconds, 2 problems found Where am I going wrong? I have downloaded, configured, make'd and installed GNU tar from www.gnu.org, I have re-configured, make-d and installed Amanda with the additional --with-gnutar=/usr/local/bin/tar I see a few websites/FAQs refer to gtar and can someone also confirm if gnutar is the same as tar from GNU???
