Hello- Thank you for the reply.

"Are you *sure* you want your vtapes in /usr/src/amanda ?"
No - I'm not sure of anything for sure, I'm just trying to
get this running! =)  But, have not been successful!

I started with that HOWTO
(http://www.amanda.org/docs/howto-filedriver.html), and was
told that for testing, they wanted it to write to the
harddisk vs. tapes, so I found the other link; how do I
know what to parameters to change exactly?

Thanks!
