Hello All, After adding ALL: ALL to my /etc/hosts.deny file, amrecover stopped working.
Before I go on, let me explain how I use amrecover; I never use it from the client, only from the server. I recover files and folders to a web directory on the amanda server and the clients pick them up thru the web or ftp. Each client has their own recovery directory on the server, and the server runs SSL to encrypt the data transfer. It's simple, and it works good in my situation. Anyway, amrecover stopped working after I added ALL: ALL to /etc/hosts.deny, even though the server's IP was included in /etc/hosts.allow. When I added ALL: 127.0.0.1 to /etc/hosts.allow everything worked fine again. Thought this might help others who have had this problem. Brad
