Jon,

My error - I'd intended to cc the list.

Jon,
Gene,

I'm uncertain how to unravel the core file - but I did find one
in one of my amanda directories and for lack of proper training
ran strings on it.

This is interesting (I think)...

This is pulled from several pages down and I'm afraid it might
highlight something in the changer script, chg-zd-mtx.

So I will try running chg-zd-mtx commands and see if I can't
induct an error.
