Have you configured and labeled any virtual tapes? Do you have a "tapelist" file with reasonable entries created by amlabel? Can you use amtape to select a tape? Even if you do not build and install the latest amanda version, I'd encourage you to download it an take a look in the doc's directory. There is a new "how-to" for disk based operations. jon -- Jon H. LaBadie [EMAIL PROTECTED] JG Computing 4455 Province Line Road (609) 252-0159 Princeton, NJ 08540-4322 (609) 683-7220 (fax)
