We're using Amanda at two sites, one backing up about a dozen machines
to a 30 tape DLT archive library, and one to back up another dozen
machines to an 8 tape changer (I can change the tapes on this one
though, since it's nearby).

One server is Solaris 2.7/sparc, one is Debian stable/unstable mixed.
The clients are Debian Linux, Solaris and OpenBSD.

Works very nicely, very pleased with it.
