Why so complicated? You can set the path to the disklist in your amanda.conf. You don't need to set symlinks in each config-path. Set the disklist to a path who ist not your config-path (e.g. /etc/amanda/disklist for the disklist and /etc/amanda/DailySet1 for the config) and be happy. Great weekend Bernd
