Amanda (or gtar) ignoring exclude file list

Hello amanda-users,
I have an interesting problem. I use gtar for my backups with Amanda. I
have an exclude file specified, and I know it is on all my systems
because if the file is missing then Amanda complains.
However, gtar seems to ignore the exclude list. For example, I have the
following in one of the files on one system:
./opt
./tmp
./dev
./var/lib/amanda
./var/log
./var/spool
./log
./spool
Yet I get the following errors/warnings on my Amanda report:
? gtar: ./log/messages: file changed as we read it
? gtar: ./log/postgresql: file changed as we read it
and this is the relevent line from the disklist file:
p1.questionmarket.com /var comp-high
Here is the definition of comp-high:
define dumptype global {
comment "Global definitions"
index yes
program "GNUTAR"
}
define dumptype comp-high {
global
comment "very important partitions on fast machines"
compress server best
priority high
}
I'm running Amanda 2.4.4p1 on all systems. Both of these systems are
Redhat Linux release 9
Thanks in advance
JBB
