I can, the srcs are there, or I can move them over and have version 
matching till the next amanda snapshot comes out, but the puzzle is 
why the non-compressed backups failed, while the compressed ones 
worked.  Non-compressed tells me gzip isn't a factor.  And, to top it 
off, the normal printout of results amanda does for me, didn't print 
until I investigated after getting an email from amcheck that there 
appeared to be another instance of amdump running, or I needed to run 
amcleanup.  Since amdump, nor any of its slaves were running, I ran 
the cleanup script, and then got the printout and the email telling 
me what had failed.

Me confused, and goes off to wait till tonights run & see if it 
repeats.
