amrecover from 2.5.0p2 using tape_splitsize

[Charlie Reitsma]

I set up 2.5.0p2 amanda with tape_splitsize and am satisfied with the  
result (98% tape utilization on large runs). But we want to restore  
something and are seeing "tar: Unexpected EOF in archive" using  
amrecover.

I saw a thread that recommended trying amindexd, amidxtaped,  
amoldrecover from 2.5.1b2. That was reported successful with no  
configuration changes. I wonder if anyone could flesh that out a bit  
more for me?

I compiled 2.5.1b2 and installed in /usr/local. Am I copying amindexd  
and amidxtaped from /usr/local/sbin into /usr/sbin on the server? Do I  
repeat the compile on each client and use amoldrecover instead of  
amrecover?
