As I noted before, DON'T use "localhost". Bad thing. Use the full name of the server. The server has been compiled with -default-tape-server=localhost ? If you still have the sources lying around I would recommend a simple make uninstall ./configure --with-tape-server=<fqdn> --other-options --... make install It does not break/delete/change your config/index-dirs or such. But you get predictable behavior. It is a well known fact on this list to not use "localhost". As it seems it doesn't come through the docs well enough. -- best regards, Stefan Stefan G.
