Hello list,
my English is bad, so  I want your amnesty.

I used
{{{
[root@fedora network-scripts]# more /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)
[amandabackup@fedora ~]$ amadmin xx version
build: VERSION="Amanda-2.5.2p1"
}}}

I want to use the IPv6 with the Amanda, so now i test on only local backup.
But I regret to inform you that I don't have further knowledge about the IPv6.

I configured the disklist and the '/etc/hosts'.

#Pattern1:

[disklist]
localhost      /etc    root-tar        # USE IPV6

[/etc/hosts]
::1     localhost

They are no problem, i can do "amdump" and "amcheck" via IPv6.


But the next config is not working.

#Pattern2:

[disklist]
fedora_ipv6     /etc    root-tar        # USE IPV6

[/etc/hosts]
fe80::215:c5ff:fe77:8c47        fedora_ipv6

"fe80::215:c5ff:fe77:8c47" is the eth0 on the same host.

{{{
# ifconfig eth0
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:15:C5:77:8C:47
          inet addr:192.168.1.11  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::215:c5ff:fe77:8c47/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:85 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:48 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:28295 (27.6 KiB)  TX bytes:8636 (8.4 KiB)
          Interrupt:17

}}}

I got the Error:

{{{
amandabackup@fedora ~]$ amcheck -c DailySet1

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: fedora_ipv6: selfcheck request failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
Client check: 1 host checked in 13.664 seconds, 1 problem found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.5.2p1)
}}}


I found the Error in the "amcheck debug file"

{{{
amcheck-clients: time 0.010: connect_port: Skip port 516: Owned by videotex.
amcheck-clients: time 0.017: connect_port: Try  port 517: Available   -

t
amcheck-clients: time 0.018: connect_portrange: connect to
fe80::215:c5ff:fe77:8c47.10080 f
ailed: Invalid argument
}}}

So, I checked the "iptables" and "/etc/xinetd.d/amanda" and
"/home/amanda/.amandahosts", but i don't found the mistake. I think
the mistake is unique problem about the IPv6.

Any advice would be great.

Best Regards,
Yoshihiro.
