Ok.

Not OK.

Should contain:

server.domain.co.uk root
server.domain.co.uk amanda

CA> My /var.log/messages

Is xinetd running? Should be concerning the netstat-output.

CA> Run socklist and amanda isnt using any ports

AMANDA isn't running now. This is OK.

CA> cd /tmp/amanda-debug

Fine so far.

Correct your .amandahosts first.
