You only need to set Ignore FileSet Changes = yes if you change a File= or

Well, that answers that! I suppose it isn't the end of the world, though it
will use up a lot more of my tapes than I'd hoped. I suppose there's no
reason to do the md5 comparison, then.
One final question: if I want to change accurate to pinsmc but not start a
whole new full backup, do I need to
I'm replying inline because it is easier.

When restoring a FileSet for a specified date (including "most recent"),

Thanks for the response. My (incorrect, I suppose) understanding was that
Accurate=pins5 would just look at an unknown file and determine if it was
