All,

One of my DLEs is too large to be backed up, so I attempted to split
them up using something like the example given on the wiki[1], using
include / exclude patterns.  Last night our backups ran but the new
DLEs failed:

  sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/tar
  sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/tar -xpGf - ...
  sendbackup: info end
  ? /bin/tar: ./homes/[a-d]*: Warning: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

It seems tar is trying to access the new DLEs literally.  We're on
Linux, so tar should be GNU tar.  CentOS 5.8, Amanda 3.3.1, tar 1.15.1
(stated as compatible[2]).

Anyone know what's up?

Thanks!
