Re: 2.4.3 amandad time outs PLEASE HELP!

Hi
Thanks so much! With your help turning on debugging, I was able to find
that clients couldn't respond to the server. This didn't show up in any
logs anywhere, only gleaned this from the detailed amanda logging:(
This led me back to rereading the troubleshooting page
(http://amanda.sourceforge.net/fom-serve/cache/16.html)... the very
last item on this page was the answer:
Keep in mind also that amanda uses random ports < 1024 on the server
when servicing remote clients.
For instance on Red Hat 7.1 I needed a line like this one in
/etc/sysconfig/ipchains:
-A input -s {client IP address}/32 -d 0/0 0:1024 -p udp -j ACCEPT
or prepend 'ipchains ' to the above for a command line version.

Shouldn't ipchains write something to some log somewhere on denying
requests? :(
thank so much for your help

Hi
I have installed amanda 2.4.3 client on a Mac OS X box and have the
same issue described below (in a post I made yesterday). amandad on
the
client waits for an ACK and receives a REQ instead. This happens twice
and then the client amandad times out and exits while waiting for the
ACK.
I had amanda 2.4.2p2 previously working on both redhat linux (7.2
kernel 2.4.7-10) and this Mac OS X (10.2.2) box before the upgrade to
2.4.3. We also changed all our ip's on our network but I can't see
where that is affecting amanda since the fresh install of 2.4.3.
Check it again.
Another interesting note is that the backup runs successfully on the
amanda server (redhat linux 7.3 kernel 2.4.19 with ac4 patch) when it
is backed up (as a client). But our other 2 clients timeout waiting
for
ACKS they do not receive:(
I have gone through all the obvious troubleshooting mentioned in
http://amanda.sourceforge.net/fom-serve/cache/16.html and searched the
archives to no avail.
Anyone have any idea what is going wrong here?! PLEASE HELP!
Is there some way to turn up the level of debugging amanda does to
it's
log files? Anything please!
Add "#define PROTO_DEBUG 1" at the beginning of common-src/protocol.c
and recompile on client and server.
After an amcheck, check the amandad.*.debug files on client
and amcheck.*.debug on server.
