Hi Again whats does it say on the client's Linux of causer /tmp/amanda
amandad.date.debug
amcheck.date.debug
I assume you have created the similar directories for your windoze box.
Also can you run tcpdump to dump traffic on a network.
# tcpdump host <amanda_client> > /tmp/log_of_your_dump_packets
I used tcpdump to check my client servers status and I thus was bale to
sort my firewall which isn't your issue I know.
I assume you are looking for tests to do from your windoze So I guess I
am stuck all my windoze clients are only accessible from their work
group and I backup them individualy with the ntbackup utiltiy as they
are really only running standalone apps.
Cheers
Cheers
Chuck
