No, it's a problem with your system configuration, not an amanda bug.
Well, I turned off /etc/hosts caching so that should fix the system problem.

Did you try amstatus? It should give the reason. Also look
OK, that was the magic incantation. But what would cause a connection failure
over the loopback interface? My firewall trusts it and I don't see any dropped

I sometimes get sendsize packets being dropped by iptables, presumably
because the iptables connection tracking decided the UDP connection was
closed. This causes the estimates to take much longer because the first
sendsize process gives up. Has anyone found a solution to this?

The segfault issue is fixed in the HEAD branch of CVS. I'm not sure
exactly when it was patched. However, you need to figure out where the

This is fixed in CVS. The following patch fixed the problem for me,
but YMMV. In particular, if your firewall is picky about source ports
for outgoing connections, it won't help you. Note that this is *not*
the patch in CVS; OTOH it only affects one file rather than two. It

I can see why amrecover does this when no changer is defined. But why can't it issue

Try taking out the '>/tmp/gpg.debug'. It looks like that's debugging code they
left in the file by mistake. Or change it to '2>/tmp/gpg.debug' since the
script has '#!/bin/bash' at the top (should really be '#! /bin/bash').

Does amanda take it upon herself to clean the tape drive after a certain amount
of use? If so, how is this controlled? The manual for our tape drive says to
clean it only when the front panel display requests it.

I'm using the tapedev "0" configuration style for chg-scsi as suggested in
TAPE.CHANGERS. This confuses amrecover, which expects to see "0" as a valid
tape device rather than looking for the changer config file to determine the
correct tape device. Yes, I can use the settape(sp?) command, but it
