You're correct -- you would need to recompile from source to apply the patch. However, the patch is only for amtapetype, which is only responsible for determining the tapetype you would use in your amanda.conf. If other folks on the list have a working tapetype declaration for your drive (HP Ultrium LTO1(100/200 GB)), then you may be able to skip using amtapetype altogether. If that doesn't work, I can build a patched version of that utility and send it to you by email. Dustin -- Storage Software Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
