Ah, interesting. I wonder if doing a one-line patch against (say) indexfd instead would also prevent the "index tee cannot write [" error message. That would imply that just making _any_ fnctl(XX, F_

But, on the other hand, I don't immediately understand why the one-line datafd patch would avoid the sed stdout error that you got when tried Jean-Louis's pipe-blocking.diff patch [from Aug 24], as y

Doubtful Gerhard, although I didn't check that at the time. I simply went back to the amanda-2.6.2alpha-20090831 version and reran that same script. The amcheck at the end of it had no problems, and

OK, sorry for the delay. Attached is a patch, also at http://github.com/djmitche/amanda/commit/435ed5a820819188578df4a8a730a6b084a9f29f.patch which adds a whole bunch of debugging. I'd like to hear h

FWIW, 2.6.2alpha-20090905 is similarly broken. Back to 0831, which worked fine last night. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo. Please
