where files exist that are not in the backup (new files) Amanda deletes them
(not overwrite!). I want prevent that......the overwriting is ok!

Sebastian
there's no way for the restore not to overwrite the files.
What I do is to cd to somewhere that's *not* the start point for the
backup, restore the files then mv them to where I need them to be
possibily with a new name eg fred.c.restore.

Hi,
i got a question.
When I recover a backup into a directory in which already files exist
(others than in the Backup), Amanda deletes the existing files after the
backup. I don’t want Amanda to do that.
Is it possible to prevent this?
Regards,
Sebastian
