Open the corresponding ports in the firewall setup.

The reason udp port 34932 was tried because Amanda cannot find a reserved udp port that it can use.

The following occurred while compiling with the values you suggested:

Hi,

add "-with-tcpportrange=50000,50100 --with-udpportrange=512,1023" to whatever you have in your configure line. For example:

./configure --with-user=amandabackup --with-group=disk -with-tcpportrange=50000,50100 --with-udpportrange=512,1023

Run configure again and make install.

After configuring both the ta;e server and the client with the suggested portranges above

I got the  following:

14:46:02.501703 IP famrad.familyradio.org.47737 > familyserv.familyradio.org.amanda: UDP, length: 123 14:46:02.543577 IP familyserv.familyradio.org.amanda > famrad.familyradio.org.47737: UDP, length: 50 14:46:02.544603 IP familyserv.familyradio.org.amanda > famrad.familyradio.org.47737: UDP, length: 109 14:46:02.549035 IP famrad.familyradio.org.47737 > familyserv.familyradio.org.amanda: UDP, length: 50

Notice the reference to port 47737 which is outside the range(s) specified. I have a feeling I am doing

something really stupid!

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is there a firewall in between? If it's iptables, you can tell by running "iptables -L".

The page below could be helpful too.
