I tried amrecover of the offending dump -- doesn't look good: tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: ./edits/.thumbnails: Warning: Cannot acl_from_text: Invalid argument tar: ./edits/.md5: Warning: Cannot acl_from_text: Invalid argument tar: ./.thumbnails: Warning: Cannot acl_from_text: Invalid argument tar: ./.md5: Warning: Cannot acl_from_text: Invalid argument tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now Extractor child exited with status 2 amrecover> I'm going to give 2.6.0 a shot here, as soon as I get it installed on Fedora 8. I'll leave the server alone (amanda-backup_server-2.5.1p3-1.fc6). Cheers.
