I have problem doing incremental backup on mount file. I'm using FC2 systems. The server mount to some files and does incremental backup

How does the server "mount to" the files? The canonical way to use amanda is to install it on the client.

everyday. The proplem is the ctime some how got changed when backing up, so the files endup archived even though it's not been touched. Any idea?

Amanda uses dump and/or tar to actually get the bits off the disk. Neither of those should touch ctime.
