Cutting through the chaff,

In libexec put your executable chg-zd-mtx.
It undoubtedly already is if you did a "make install".

In DailySet1 (or your config dir) put a file of "ANY" name
with a ".conf" extension that contains your chg-zd-mtx
changer configuation parameters.  You have chosen to call
yours chg-zd-mtx.conf if I understand your setup.

In your amanda.conf file change the parameter "changerfile"
to point to your "ANY" name changer configuration file.
BUT, and this is a critical BUT, do NOT, (NOT!!) include
the ".conf" extension.


Personally I think it is silly and inconvenient that when
chg-zd-mtx looks for its config file, it adds a .conf to the
filename specified in amanda.conf.  The administrator is
expected to remember to leave it off in the amanda.conf file
for chg-zd-mtx but include it for other changer scripts.
