Hi! Here's a little bit more information:
> - In /var/log/messages (see attachment "schatten_messages") just above > the "sendbackup"-entry I get strange error messages about connecting to > an ldap-server. We're using LDAP at our site, but I can see no > significant reason, why gtar needs this, since all users used by Amanda > are local in /etc/passwd and /etc/group. nsswitch.conf is configured > correctly (file before ldap). LDAP is required because the user-/group-numbers are resolved to names through it. But a manually started "gtar --create --file - --directory . --one-file-system --sparse --ignore-failed-read --totals . | /bin/tar -tf - 2>/dev/null | sed -e 's/^\.//'" doesn't reproduce this failure and doesn't create an equivalent syslog entry like during backup. Hope, somebody is able to help me!
