Hi All!

I'm using AMANDA 2.4.3, and backing up to disk by faking a chg-multi
device. Everything's set up, it's backing up correctly, but I am now
trying to restore. I tried to restore a filesystem using amrestore that
does not exist... and now,
whenever I try to do one that DOES exist, Amanda tells me:

amrestore: WARNING: not at start of tape, file numbers will be offset
amrestore:   0: reached end of information

Yikes! How do I "Rewind" this disk directory that AMANDA thinks is a
non-rewinding tape device?

Happy Wednesday,

Wayne
