I compiled amanda...tried rpm but something strange happened. (Can't remember what now) Actually when I checked my /etc/passwd file $HOME for amanda was set to /var/lib/amanda, so I changed it to /home/amanda. The entry in passwd now looks like this: amanda:x:33:6:Amanda

Rick, For what it's worth, I just used gcc and other GNU tools such as automake, autoconf, etc. Amanda compiled and works fine using these tools. You can get them from IBM at the following address: http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/aix/products/aixos/linux/download.html Anthony Valentine
