crontabs settings have little to do with amandas scheduleing other than
supplying the do it command at the specified time & dayofweek. You
probably want to check your dumpcycle, runspercycle and such in the
amanda/Dailyset1/amanda.config to make sure its doing an every day mode.
Although, I note that the above does indicate you do have a dumpcycle of 7
days, and a runspercycle of 7 also. So now I'm scratching my head too.
And coming up empty unforch.
