and the same server did a succesful restore so it seems that if the client version of dump is higher than the server the restore barfs however the opposite appears to give a good restore -
Looks like i'm going to have to install myself a new server box with dump 0.4b39 so get around this - Unless anyone has any other suggestions? 

thanks
OK - I have managed to resolve this issue. I had to install a newer version of dump that was higher than the client version and then re-compile amanda so that it picked up this new version of dump.
It appears that dump/restore is a bit picky regarding version numbers - the client version must be the same or lower than the server version otherwise restores may not work. 

thanks
