Yes, you need to create an /etc/amandapass file with the appropriate
username/password combinations. man amanda for the details.
As for the second problem, I don't see anything in the .debug files that
gives me a clue. The permissions for /etc/amandates look like this:
-rw-r----- 1 amandabackup disk 0 Jul 10 17:20 /etc/amandates
Any ideas?
Is the user you configured amanda as actually "amandabackup" or is it really
just "amanda"?
I already created /etc/amandpass, and I really am running amcheck as the
user "amandabackup" -- I installed from the zmanda RPMs and this is how
they set things up.
But, I seem to have found the source of the problem -- I'm running
Fedora Core 4 which has SELinux enabled by default. When I turn that
off, amcheck runs with no errors.
Is there an easy way to make amanda play nice with SELinux?
If not, I can live with SELinux disabled, since our backup server is
only accessible from the LAN anyway.
