Hi

I'm sure that this is more of a solaris 8 thing than Amanda, but maybe
someone else here has hit the same problem?

Initially, amcheck reported that gnutar and runtar were not installed.

I duly copied in runtar, and installed gnutar, but I still get an error for
gnutar.

bash-2.03$ which tar
/netapp/packages/mus-local/SunOS/5.8/bin/tar
bash-2.03$ /netapp/packages/mus-local/SunOS/5.8/bin/tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.12

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
