Greetings; Has fedora, in the patches applied to the tar-1.20 rpm, managed to make it ignore the passed option "--no-device-check' & do it without reporting an error? I can see the option being passed to it in the htop display when its running so I have to assume its getting to the tar invocation ok. I have all the symptoms of that duck waddling thru my system since the device- mapper-multipath rpm update was done a few days ago. When fedora decides to re-write the udev rules (or whatever does the disks on the system to enumerate them in the /dev directory) then tar gets a tummy ache and every byte on the system is suddenly brand new _unless_ the above option is being honored. That means amanda needs about 7-10 runs to get caught up again and run somewhere near normally for incrementals. Thanks. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
