jane,
the disklist file looks fine. are you getting an email with errors?
if so please send that and I can maybe help. If your getting "disk
offline" errors it may be a permission issue. what user is amanda
running as? are the filesystems (/dev/[sh]da[0-9]) owned by the group
that amanda is running as? These are the first two things I would check.
btw: I've had problems editing the group file by hand and adding amanda
user to a group. It seems that the default group must be correct and
amanda must be compiled with the correct options. Are you compiling from
source or using an rpm?
