Perhaps you are concerned that Amanda treats the local system the same as the others and that the traffic may be going down the network stack and getting looped backed up?
Why are you worried about this? More and more unix software is built this way (X windows for one), so why should we be worried that Amanda works this way also?

Am I missing something? Can't you just remove the remote filesystems from disklist in your amanda configuration so that it doesn't back them up? -- Albert Hopkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Laboratory Corporation of America
