Amanda is a popular network backup and archiving software that protects multiple machines running various versions of Linux, Unix, and Microsoft Windows operating systems. It supports tapes, disks, optical media, and changers.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
Kerberos 4/5 and OpenSSH are now used for communication security and authentication. Symmetric/asymmetric encrytion algorithms (aespipe and gpg encryption) and custom encryption utilities can be used for data security. The ability to add custom compression tools was added. A user can use different compression algorithm for images, binaries, ASCII files, and so on. Dump images may now span multiple media volumes. Automatic tape labeling was implemented.
