amstatus doesn't like ':' in diskname because we use at as separator

Anyone know if ':' is a valid character in a hostname?

Hi.
I have a couple of XFS + TAR partitions that I'm backing up onto tape.
There are no errors thrown when backing up, however whenever I try to

I've got a Linux workstation which uses xfs as one of its volumes

to call /sbin/dump on it, which under Linux blows up (/sbin/dump is ext2/3

Continuing with my estimate saga...
What would cause a level 1 backup of a DLE with gnutar
be as big as a full? Estimates are done with calcsize
and gnutar is 1.13.25 with amanda-2.4.5
Could it be that the gnutar-lists file is corrupted?
Looking at them I see that they all have the same size

Sometimes the files you're recovering are on a tape that's no longer in
the changer, so you must manually insert it into the changer and mount
it to a drive before telling amrecover to continue.
