Ok so I finally took a chance and have installed the
latest amanda version 2.4.4 as follows:
./configure --with-user=amanda --with-group=disk \
--with-gnutar=/bin/tar \
--prefix=/usr/local/amanda
I thought this is what is needed to tell Amanda to use
GNUTAR instead of DUMP....however I'm not sure if that
worked. I say this because if I rename the dump
binary, amanda complains about unable to execute
/sbin/dump.
Any clues as to what I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Ashwin.
