I finally got it out in interactive mode. To be honest, I think everything you have said here should be in the docs. As far as I can tell, there is no method explained on how to extract a single file if you cannot use amrecover as in the case of a missing amanda.conf.
You read: http://www.amanda.org/docs/restore.html ? What I said was a combination of scenario 6 (iii) but with easier case of using "amrestore" instead of "dd", as explained in scenario 1. The use of restore/tar to extract individual files is supposed to be already known by a System Administrator. And, rule number 1, it helps to practice restoring before disaster really strikes. -- Paul Bijnens, Xplanation Tel +32 16 397.511 Technologielaan 21 bus 2, B-3001 Leuven, BELGIUM Fax +32 16 397.512 http://www.xplanation.com/ email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************************** * I think I've got the hang of it now: exit, ^D, ^C, ^\, ^Z, ^Q, ^^, * * F6, quit, ZZ, :q, :q!, M-Z, ^X^C, logoff, logout, close, bye, /bye, * * stop, end, F3, ~., ^]c, +++ ATH, disconnect, halt, abort, hangup, * * PF4, F20, ^X^X, :D::D, KJOB, F14-f-e, F8-e, kill -1 $$, shutdown, * * init 0, kill -9 1, Alt-F4, Ctrl-Alt-Del, AltGr-NumLock, Stop-A, ... * * ...
