Greetings;
After the box crashed and powered itself down tuesday evening, no backups 
were done for the 18th & 19th.  Last night of course overran the tape 
because I'd switched those for a machine that had been shut down while I 
was gone back on, so there'll be a flush tonight.

I also just installed on this server, the 2.5.1p1-20061019 snapshot, and 
when I ran the finishing 'su amanda -c "amcheck Daily"' it returned this:

I can understand the first reject as that was still last nights tape, but 
whats the deal with its rejecting the re-use of the next 2?  I hadn't 
noticed that before, and I've not marked any of them as no-reuse, but all 
the way back to april?  Wierdsville...

Whats the usual troublehsooting procedure here?
