I have no idea why amanda can't find it, but see our earlier messages about the tar version numbers, they are very important. 1.13 alone won't cut it, the suffix -19 or -25 must be appended in the report when you do a 'tar --version' If it wasn't installed when the ./configure was done, then it won't find it to hard code it into the amanda executables, so blow away the files 'config.cache' and 'config.status' after you've installed the right version of tar, and then rerun ./configure & make (as amanda), and make install (as root), and that should probably fix the can't find messages. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.22% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly
