Thanks to Gerrit, Brian and Jean-Louis. I'll be responding to them in
this message
Hello Gerrit, thanks for chiming in!!>> include "./[a-c].*"

Good point, thanks!
localhost /home/a1 /home {
vhost2-user-tar
include "./aaronson"
} 1 local
And an amcheck seemed to work:
Client check: 1 host checked in 1.220 seconds. 0 problems found.
So, it appears that the ./ is correct, which follows what Jean-louis
follows with:

Yes, they are on the same filesystem:
bash-4.1$ df /home /home/aaronson

I *think* that amanda was configured --with-program GNUTAR, but it was
compiled before I took over. Is there a way to check, via a debug file
or log?

Starting point is /home and then the include directive is for "./[a-c]*"
And all subdirectories are lower-case, except the numbered which will
get "./[0-9]*" as their include directive.
Thanks so much,
