Hi, I'm newbie in Amanda. I have installed Amanda 2.4.2p2 under Solaris 8 in a SunFire 280 machine. I compiled Amanda with options by default and changed the default path to --prefix=/software/amanda, so I have Amanda under /software/amanda
I add the next lines to /etc/inetd.conf amanda dgram udp wait amanda /software/amanda/libexec/amandad amandad amandaidx stream tcp nowait amanda /software/amanda/libexec/amindexd amindexd amidxtape stream tcp nowait amanda /software/amanda/libexec/amidxtaped amidxtaped and to /etc/services amanda 10080/udp # Amanda backup services amandaidx 10082/tcp # Amanda backup services amidxtape 10083/tcp # Amanda backup services I have the permissions set on all of the files so that Amanda can read, write and execute. My ~amanda/.amandahosts has wendy amanda and .../etc/amanda/disklist wendy /software/amanda/share nocomp-test 0 local Well, when i do #su amanda -c "/software/amanda/sbin/amcheck amanda", it shows the next messages Amanda Tape Server Host Check ----------------------------- Holding disk /tmp/dumps: 7325304 KB disk space available, that's plenty amcheck-server: slot 5: date X label DGQ976 (exact label match) NOTE: skipping tape-writable test Tape DGQ976 label ok Server check took 12.602 seconds Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- WARNING: wendy: selfcheck request timed out.

Could you tell me why??
