Here are the test results and nothing seems strange:

8:24 mail: {117} ./amverify DailySet1
[: syntax error
No tape changer...
Tape device is /dev/nrst0...
Verify summary to amanda admin
Defects file is /tmp/amverify.1259/defects
amverify DailySet1
Wed Jan 20 08:25:46 CST 1999

Using device /dev/nrst0
Waiting for device to go ready...\rRewinding...                            
\rProcessing label...\rVolume VOL02, Date 19990117
Rewinding...\rReading...\rChecked internet.netsys.hn.sd0a.19990117.0
Reading...\rEnd-of-Tape detected.
Rewinding...\r
8:26 mail: {118}

I cd to /tmp but there is no amverify.1259/defects file there.
The only weird thing I found here is that mail.netsys.hn is the Amanda
server and from which I want to recover a file. Why is amverify telling me
that it checked internet.netsys.hn which is only an Amanda client?


Thanks again for your time.
