What version of amanda was signed at the bottom of that msg, Jon?
ATM, I'm also having all sorts of weird goings on with 2.5.1 snapshots, and
I'm rerunning last nights run after re-installing 2.5.0p2 from 20060424
because the 2.5.1 stuff failed totally. And I had to reboot to get an
amcheck to run, the client on this box wasn't responding after I'd killed
all its processes that had turned into zombies in the night. The above NT
error doesn't match the ones I'm seeing though, no NT stuffs here, the
gtar's were failing, sometimes en-mass on one machine one night, on the
next machine the next night. About the only thing consistent was the fact
that it failed. Sometimes they'd run 2-3 random dle's, then die.
Weirdsville. A rerun is about done, and amstatus says its ok. I'll hold
this till I get that email to be sure.
Yup, the printed report looks good.

People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)
