We'll need more data to define the problem. I'm guessing that there is a configuration problem so its not finding the tape drive. Make sure that the device (only one) in amanda.conf matches that which *should* have been found and given a devicename in your /var/log/dmesg file. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.19% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly
