Hi! I've problems with my amanda (and my first backup).  

The original problem was this (from amreport):

 xaloc      /.furvbackup lev 0 FAILED [xaloc: [access as backup not allowed 
from backup AT xaloc.stq.urv DOT es] amandahostsauth failed

I've created into /home/dump (the home dir of my user "backup" which is the 
default configuration from my linux debian) the file .amandahosts with these 
lines:

localhost backup
xaloc backup

and I've changed the permissions to 660.

Now, amreport says the following:

ERROR: xaloc: [access as backup not allowed from backup AT xaloc.stq.urv DOT 
es] amandahostsauth failed

... basically the same. Why??? Can anyone help to me?

Best regards,
