Tony, I have "index yes" in amanda.conf. I just ran: /usr/sbin/amrecover -C daily -s backup.rnd.caribbeanblue.com -t backup.rnd.caribbeanblue.com -d /dev/nst0
amrecover still produces the same error: Unexpected server end of file. I wish the debug files were more detailed. What EOF could it be? Eric P.S.
