Was amrecover broken for vtapes in general or only encrypted vtapes?  I
have a vtape setup here but when I try to recover I get the following
message from amrecover:

Extracting files using tape drive file:/l/slots/ on host localhost.
Load tape Ximbiot7 now
Continue [?/Y/n/t]? y
EOF, check amidxtaped.debug file on localhost.
amrecover: short block 0 bytes
UNKNOWN file
amrecover: Can't read file header
extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1
Continue [?/Y/n]?


I also tried using amtape to load the correct "tape" before running
amrecover with the same results. This is not covered in the
HOWTO-FILE-DRIVER distributed with Amanda 2.4.4p3. Am I doing something
wrong?   I can't even find an amidxtaped.debug file.

Thanks,

Derek
