Thoughts/opinions here? BTW the AMANDA server runs Debian/Woody (2.4.2p2-4) and the client being backed up above runs Debian/Sarge AMD64 (2.4.4p3-3).
It could very well be b -- if it is it's not amanda, it's tar. The backup program is responsible exclusively for what does and does not get backed up. Amanda just communicates a level/last backup date/file list to use. Depending on the dump/backup program. I know that a new tar version in sarge atleast before the security update taht just went out is broken anyway. It doesn't create valid archives a lot of the time, you'd be better off installing a backported tar from unstable, or rebuilding the one in oldstable and using that. Google around for invalid base64 or obsolescent base64 header skipping to next archive (i think that's right) if you haven't seen the error message yet.
