gnutar, aka tar, preferably version 1.13-25, must be present and installed on the system someplace in the PATH in order for the configure script to find it. Its location is hard-coded into the executables as they are built, and if it wasn't findable when configure was last run, then amanda can't use it. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.06% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly
