Chris,
   here are more details on my setup:

Amanda server is running on RedHat linux 7.2 without problems. I'm currently using it to backup about 10 linux clients and 4 winNT clients. I'm using a Adic Fastor 7 tape changer. Everything works fine. amcheck comes back ok on the configuration with the SCO server. 'amcheck -c [config]' --sinp--

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.730 seconds, 0 problems found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.2p2)


--snip--

When I run am dump I can 'ps -ef | grep tar' and see a tar process running.

--snip--

root 17712 17329 16 10:17:09 ? 00:12:07 /usr/local/bin/tar --create --file /dev/null --directory /u3 --one-file-system


--snip--


Then shortly I get the email below.

I hope this helps you help me.
thanks,
chris

Chris, A few more details are needed to help you out. First are you using amanda to backup this machine only? If so, the problem could be that you need to configure amanda-server on this machine also. What are the results of your AMCHECK run? That may help to debug the problem.
