with-db=text solved remaining problems on Solaris 9 systems

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to report that since I changed the configuration of Amanda on the Solaris 9 boxes to use '--with-db=text' instead of '--with-db=db' everything has begun to work properly and backups of the three Solaris 9 systems are operating as expected after a few days of 'catching up' with all the old unflushed backups. 8-) I think the installation instructions for Amanda need reviewing to specify that people do not use anything other than '--with-db=text' and that on Solaris 9 at least, '--without-ipv6' needs to be specifically used on systems that are not operating on ipv6-based networks.

Now I'll try to solve the problem of compiling Amanda on my Cobalt Raq-4i web-server machine so that can be included in the backup schema as well. At least one person did reply to my question about the compilation problem on the raq-4i so I'll find and review the reply(s).

Craig.
