how did you compile amanda? Look in the amandad.debug file for GNUTAR. Just create a symlink to wherever you installed gtar, ie if you got gnutar from SGI freeware (/usr/freeware/bin/tar) and amanda expects /usr/blah/tar, then just ln -s /usr/freeware/bin/tar /usr/blah/tar should do the trick. jf > > > thanks, > > Brian > > --- > Brian R Cuttler [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Computer Systems Support (v) 518 486-1697 > Wadsworth Center (f) 518 473-6384 > NYS Department of Health Help Desk 518 473-0773 -- There's a crack in everything That's how the light gets in.
