Thanks Gene and Marcelo !!!!
I run my backups and it's ok !
But now, when I try to recover this backup I get this output of amrecover:

[root@asterix DailySet1]# amrecover DailySet1
AMRECOVER Version 2.4.2p2. Contacting server on localhost ...
220 asterix AMANDA index server (2.4.2p2) ready.
500 Access not allowed: [access as amanda not allowed from root@asterix] 
amandahostsauth failed

Why amanda is looking for a localhost, if I set up my .amandahosts like this :

[root@asterix amanda]# vi .amandahosts
asterix amanda

Someone could help me with this ?
