-** CAUTION **
-
-THE RELEASE OF AMANDA 2.4 BREAKS BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY WITH
-EARLIER AMANDA CLIENTS (PER CHANGES FILE IN THE DISTRIBUTION.)
-
-WHAT IS AMANDA?
----------------
-
-This is a release of Amanda, the Advanced Maryland Automatic
-Network Disk Archiver. Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many
-computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive.
-
-Here are some features of Amanda:
-
- * written in C, freely distributable.
- * built on top of standard backup software: Unix dump/restore, and
- later GNU Tar and others.
- * will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting
- finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to
- tape. For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host
- with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours.
- * does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape.
