Oh, didn't know that.

}

define dumptype user-tar {
    root-tar
    comment "user partitions dumped with tar"
    priority medium
}

So if I understand correctly, I should add the compress line into the
user-tar section? Since it's a Samba mount and not a native Amanda backup
per se, should I be using a "server" compression rather than a "client" one?

Thanks,
Matt
