Some things to check:
1. Is .amandahosts on the client, on the server, or both?
2. Would it work if you replaced the IP address with the server name that appeared in amandad.debug?
3. Do you need to add a "localhost.localdomain backup" line?

Subject: .amandahost problems with amanda-2.4.2-19991216-beta1
Can someone help????
I have install amanda-2.4.2-19991216-beta1 on Freebsd 4.1-RELEASE
when I rum amcheck I get the following error:
access as backup not allowed from [EMAIL PROTECTED]] amandahostsauth
failed
I have gone through the faq and have not come across anyt mistake. I
already have amanda 2.4.1p1 runing on several servers alreday, so I have
a some experience of installing amanda
my .amandahosts file contains:
10.44.2.200 backup
my inetd.conf contains:
amanda dgram udp wait backup
/usr/local/libexec/amandad amandad
and finall amanda.debug contains:
sending ack:
----
Amanda 2.4 ACK HANDLE 000-00E00708 SEQ 974327467
----
bsd security: remote host backup.server user backup local user backup
check failed: [access as backup not allowed from [EMAIL PROTECTED]]
amandahostsauth failed
amandad: sending REP packet:
----
Amanda 2.4 REP HANDLE 000-00E00708 SEQ 974327467

amandahostsauth failed
----
amandad: got packet:
----
Amanda 2.4 ACK HANDLE 000-00E00708 SEQ 974327467

I can't see what my mistake is. Is there a problem with this build of
amanda?
Thanks in advance!
