Having several "tar's" on my system too, including a gtar that is not suitable, is one reason why I configure amanda to use /usr/local/libexec/amgtar which I make sure is good. Then whenever working with amanda I use "amgtar". -- Jon H. LaBadie [EMAIL PROTECTED] JG Computing 4455 Province Line Road (609) 252-0159 Princeton, NJ 08540-4322 (609) 683-7220 (fax)
