Hi,

I had the same problem. It usually occured when I was browsing directories
with long names and/or special characters (usually Windows clients)... I
traced the error back to some file in the Amanda source but I don't know how
to patch it. It crashes when it tries to CHDIR to the specified directory.
I found a workaround that usually works (for me...). I use wildcards. So for
example when I want to change the directory to "Local Settings" I use the
command 'cd Loca*' or something like that. Fortunately I have not yet
encountered a situation where using wildcards will not work ('Local
Settings' and 'Local Stuff', for example).
Maybe someone has a better workaround or suggestion?

Martin
