Are you certain that tape "WEEKLY001" was the tape that was in /dev/nst0 at the time you ran amrestore? If so, are you certain that the tape was rewound before you ran amrestore? If so, what did you see when file# 7 was skipped? Totally unrelated, but /dev/shm? Do you really want to do that? Just curious. -- Jay Lessert [EMAIL PROTECTED] Accelerant Networks Inc.
