Hi,
Along two years I've been using flexbackup in different distros and I haven't been any problem
with flexbackup
But now I'm using Suse Standard Server 8.0 , and i report this error when i tried to extract files
I test the tape and it works great, if i use backup with tar it backups and restore perfectly,
so i don't have any idea about it.
