I must be missing something here, I'm just trying to add a line in the
amanda.conf  to one of the dumptypes so I can exclude a single file from
getting backed up. but as soon as I add the line

exclude ./u420.tar

and run amcheck I get this in response

"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf", line 423: a quoted string
expected
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf", line 423: end of line
expected
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf", line 424: dump type
parameter expected
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf", line 424: end of line
expected
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf", line 425: dump type
parameter expected
amcheck: could not find config file
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Backup/amanda.conf"

It seems like I've interupted the flow of the dumptype definition
somehow but I'm not sure how. I'm just using good ol vi to do it.

Any ideas?
