I've plowed through the install and setup of amanda, thanks in no small part to the folks on this list, and have successfully restored various file systems with no problem. But the one task that is always the most daughnting (sp?) is restoring root from a total crash. For a client machine I'm assuming I'll need to reload the client OS and amanda but I'm not sure where to go from there.
The next big question is how do you recover from the amanda server crash? As you can probably tell I'm no tar of ufsdump wizard. right now I'm using GNUtar 1.13.19 for all my backups since I've seen so many horror stories about the dump option. -- Scott Sanders Systems Administrator Concepts Direct, Inc. 2950 Colorful Ave. Longmont, CO 80504
