the problem is, how can i trace this error. i looked at the x
machines' /tmp/amanda directory and found a core file dated as just
after sendsize file and before amandad file. the output on amandad
file is as follows:
I have no recent experience with AIX. Try "file core". Some
implementations of "file" indicate which program crashed.
"strings core" can help too.

At this position, I would expect to see the actual sizes.
The reply packet seems empty. So the core is probably
from sendsize.
There should be a file "sendsize.aboutsamedatestamp.debug" too.
Any error message in that file, (maybe just before dumping core)?
