Hi all,
After searching the archives, I can't seem to find an answer to a
nagging little problem-- one of my clients is a Solaris 8 machine
running software RAID, so its devices begin with "/dev/md/dsk...". 
However, AMANDA does not have this as one of her defined prefixes, so
I'm forced to put the entire device name in my disklist, e.g.
"/dev/md/dsk/d14" instead of just "d14" which would be nice and neat.

I don't see a configure option where you can specify the device prefix. 
>>From the debug output, I know the client at least has the ordinary
"/dev/dsk" prefix.  How do I add/change the device prefix in the
client?  I'm currently running 2.4.2p2 on the client, but I can upgrade
if there is a way in the latest version.

As I said, this is really just a nuisance.  The client is being backed
up just fine.  I just want my disklist to look nice!  ;-P

Thanks,
Eric
