Hi all,
I searched the faq-o-matic and googled this, but there didnt seem to
be any definitive answers.
My amdumps seem to be working fine, but when I try to do an amrecover and
extract a single file, I get the errors below. As a side note, I have tried
using amrestore, to dump the entire backup that contains the file I was
extracting, and that works just fine...no problem.(I might mention that this
is a rather large dump....if that makes any difference...I will try a single
file recover from a smaller dump as a test). Any ideas from the vets?

When I run the amrecover proggy:
##########################################
