port nnnnn not secure.... resolved!
2002-12-19 19:24:24
I stumbled across this in google groups after weeks of searching.
The problem: My amanda box is behind a Netopia 7100-c nat gateway, and
the netopia box mapped amanda ports to ports above 50000, which amanda
deems as insecure. The netopia box does not appear to have any way to
re-map the ports, so I was stuck. My amanda box is co-located on a
colleagues network, so I couldn't just put the amanda box as the gateway.
Here's what I did to fix it:
- open common-src/security.c within the amanda source tree
- comment out the if-statement block that starts with
if(ntohs(addr->sin_port >= IPPORT_RESERVED) {
For the non-developers, you can comment out the entire code block by
putting the /* symbols before the block to start the comment, then the
*/ symbols after the block to close the comment quote.
Hope this helps a few people!!
