OK.

Then maybe you have some difference in blocksize between
the two machines.  Some implemenations (HPUX in my experience)
read a block, and if the tapeblocksize is greater than the
readblocksize, then they throw away the excessive bytes.
Is Suse9 like that too?

Easy to find out:  restore the image to disk, and verify
the size.
or use "dd ibs=256k if=/dev/nst0 of=outfile" (a very large blocksize
and explicitly say "ibs" instead of "bs") and verify if
the files on both systems are at least the same size,
and moreover the same md5 checksum.

On these servers I have installed Suse 9.0 and amanda from rpm package.

Is the other server a different OS version?
