******************************************************************* I don't understand why you think inetd isn't trying to run the right thing. When I type netstat -a | grep -i amanda, I get this output: alpha:/etc/rc.d/init.d netstat -a | grep -i amanda tcp 0 0 *:amandaidx *:* LISTEN udp 0 0 *:amanda *:* Which makes it appear that amanda is running correctly to me... I might be wrong... I'm far from an expert. Can someone please tell me what is wrong??? ********************************************************************* > > I also CCed this back to the list in case anybody else has any > suggestions > (hint, hint). > > -- > Joshua Baker-LePain > Department of Biomedical Engineering > Duke University > > >
