Hello List,

i am running Amanda version 2.4.5 on Ubuntu Breezy and i get this error:

These dumps were to tape TEST-2.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: a new tape.
The next new tape already labelled is: TEST-3.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
  planner: ERROR testserverNAK :  user backup from testserver is not
allowed to execute the service noop: Please add "amdump" to the line
in /root/.amandahosts
  testserver      /dev/sda2 RESULTS MISSING



But amdump is already in /root/.amandahosts:

cat /root/.amandahosts
localhost root amdump

why localhost? why root? The message tell you it's testserver and backup.

add: testserver backup amdump

I still get the same error. Looks like localhost gets resolved to
testserver?

Check /etc/hosts.  Some distros don't separate the localhost entry
from the actual hostname (i.e., put localhost on the real IP and
not just on 127.0.0.1)

Thanks, Mario
