Your entries in amandapass should also have 2 slashes -> //mymachine/temp username%password

Another Amanda + Win32 backup problem





I am trying to backup a win32 host with Amanda and keep running into problems.  I compiled Amanda with smbclient full path.
When I try executing an amcheck I receive the following error.

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: mymachine.host.org: selfcheck request timed out.  Host down?
Client check: 1 host checked in 30.019 seconds, 1 problem found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.4p1)

I also receive this error in my logfile.
ERROR planner Request to mymachine.host.org timed out.

I increased the etimeout in amanda.conf although that did not change a thing.
I can use smbclient to mount my drive without a problem, and the directory shard on the win32 host has no permissions set.

This is what I have below in my disklist
mymachine.host.org //mymachine/temp comp-root-tar

I also have a username and password set out in /etc/amandapass and /usr/local/etc/amandapass .  The reason why I have amandapass in two directories is because I am unsure which one will be used by amanda on a solaris 8 box.

/mymachine/temp username%password


Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards,
                Jason
