Strange. In any acse, in addition to the atachments, i ahve now put the
email up on http://becahcave.net/amanda
Hopefully thos interested in the issue with OpenBSD clinets will atke a
minute to read it.
I don't know if this will be helpful or just poking. But, . . .
I've noticed a *lot* of typos in your emails (see the URL above --
beachcave works, becahcave gives address not found). While I can usually
work my way around misspellings (16 in the above message!), OpenBSD,
Amanda and other software will barf on them. So, I hope you take the
time to be much more meticulous when you are talking to your Amanda
server and clients. No offense intended. I just know how very difficult
it can be sometimes to track down a problem that ends up being a simple
typo somewhere. It slows down my work sometimes double checking and
documenting things, but I think it would slow down my work even more if
I didn't.
