ISTR I've had that happen once or twice, not recently, because a zombie was left on the client, possibly due to a timeout error. A reboot of the client should fix that. And you might add a bit to the timeout values in your amanda.conf just for insurance. An additional 25% should be enough, if indeed that was the cause. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
