I have nuked the source version of amanda and installed amanada version
rpm's 2.4.4 using Yast2 on SuSE Linux Enterprise server.
I have used chkconfig --list' to see if amanda service is up or not
and it is there and also when I use Yast2 > xinetd services if not
and then I run # /etc/xinetd.d restart
I stopped SuSE internal firewall.
I've ensured and checked that the appropriate lines are in /etc/services:
amanda 10080/tcp # Amanda
amanda 10080/udp # Amanda
amandaidx 10082/tcp
amidxtape 10083/tcp
I've made sure that the amanda user does have permissions to run
amandad by running /usr/sbin as amanda user this generated the /tmp/amanda
directory as I was getting Permissions Denied So rm -rf and restarted amcheck
as amanda
to re produce the /tmp/amanda dir
, and write to /tmp/amanda. Details below:
drwx--S--- 2 amanda users 576 May 17 13:28 amanda
-rwxr-xr-x 1 amanda disk 52631 Jul 1 2004 amandad
The FQDN is listed in /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts and in the disklist,
and in /etc/hosts as follows server.domain.smtl.co.uk.
I suppose I should mention that the server and client are the same
machine, server.domain.co.uk.
Does anyone have any ideas?
When I run the following
server:/usr/lib/amanda # su amanda -c "/usr/sbin/amcheck -c DailySet1"
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: server.domain.co.uk: selfcheck request timed out. Host down?
Client check: 1 host checked in 30.003 seconds, 1 problem found
As I am back to this - going backwards. I have read and digested the doc's
but this is now getting frustrating .
My /var/log/messages info as below
server su: pam_unix2: session started for user amanda, service su
May 17 13:51:46 server su: pam_unix2: session finished for user amanda, service
su
