for the first bit try using the hostname for -s rather than localhost.

Hi,

      After use the suggestion, it worked but, there are still some
problems:

        I used the line:

           amrecover Daily1 -s localhost

      But, some erros occured:

            501 No index record for host: server1.mydomain. Invalid?
             Trying Server1.mydomain ...
            501 No index record for host: Server1.mydomain. Invalid?

     After that, the prompt appeared, I did 'ls' and the 'amrecover'
returned
 me 'Must select a disk before listing file'.  After sethost (sethost
 client1) and setdisk (setdisk hdb1 /usr), I could see the directory tree
 from the backup. I add a file and tried to extract it but, some errors
 appeared:

           Load tape XYZ01 now
           Continue? [Y/n]
           EOF, check amdxtaped.debug file on localhost.
           amrecover: short block 0 bytes
           UNKNOWN file
           amrecover: Can't read file header
           extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1
           Continue?[Y/n]

        I Can't recovery the file :///. What's hapenned ?

                 Thanks,

       I've done a backup perfectly but, when I tried to run

'amrecover'

from the server or from the clients, I received the messages:

                 Contacting server on localhost ...
                  200 server1 AMANDA index server (2.4.2p2) ready.
                  500 Access not allowed: [access as backup not

allowed

from root@localhost] amandahostsauth failed.

          I put on the /root/.amandahosts -> localhost root <- on the
server. And -> server1.mydomain backup <- on the clients. I started
amrecover on the server using:  amrecover Daily1. On the clients I

started

using: amrecover Daily1 -t server1.mydomain, but the same error

occured.

What's the problem ?

You need 'localhost root' in the .amandahosts in ~backup.
