Hi,

I've appeared to run into a restore problem.  I've been backing up several
directories on a nightly basis using amanda for the past several months.
Today, I had to restore a fairly large directory.  About 1/3 through the
restore, and error message appeared:

tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers

and the restore is no longer continuing.

An added note, of all the times that I ran amdump, I never had any tar
related errors in the email report.
here are my specs:

Linux: 2.4.22
Flavor: Redhat 9.0
Tar: 1.13.25
amanda: 2.4.4p1
