Dear all,

After compiling by hand and patching amcheck.c to include our signature, all 
tests ran fine, backup work to tape etc, but a strange problem with amcheck:

You can see that a new DLE was added, hence the curinfo and index. There was 
no tape in the drive, but it should off asked for tape2, as I dumped a backup 
to tape 1. 

If I run amadmin config tape, it gives the right tape, which is also indicate 
in tapelist, tapelist.yesterday etc.

Could I have messed something up in amcheck.c ???

- ----------------------

I can still see "expecting" in amcheck.c

Just had a thought. Maybe tapelist is owned by root, and amcheck can't read 
it?

Thanks.
