Freebsd 5.2.1, amanda 2.4.4p2. I have "index yes" in amanda.conf global section. The dumptype I chose includes global. Disklist uses the correct dumptype. The indexdir exists and is writable by the amanda user. Inetd has the correct entries for indexing. When I start amrecover:
501 No index records for host: R4P17.gmihome.com. Have you enabled indexing?
