Hi!

The overwriting is not the Problem. That�s ok. When I recover in directory,
where files exist that are not in the backup (new files) Amanda deletes them
(not overwrite!). I want prevent that......the overwriting is ok!

Sebastian

there's no way for the restore not to overwrite the files.

What I do is to cd to somewhere that's *not* the start point for the 
backup, restore the files then mv them to where I need them to be 
possibily with a new name eg fred.c.restore.
