What does it say it /etc/group? Is amanda listed in the users for disk there? Did you reconfig amanda with-group=disk after you made this change?
-----Original Message----- From: Karl Bellve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 9:38 AM To: Amanda Subject: Cron and Amdump For some strange reason, cron has stopped running Amdump for me at night. I do see that cron is trying to run amdump at night. cron.log: Feb 5 00:45:00 itchy CROND[6620]: (amanda) CMD (/usr/sbin/amdump BIG1) Here is Amanda's crontab: 0 16 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/amcheck -m BIG1 45 0 * * 2-6 /usr/sbin/amdump BIG1 There is nothing in /tmp/amanda, as if amdump never runs. If I manually run amdump: su amanda -c "/usr/sbin/amdump BIG1" It works. I get logs in /tmp/amanda, and a report emailed to me. I changed group permissions for Amanda about a week ago. I noticed that I still had Amanda in the group "operator" from a previous install from a redhat rpm. Now, amanda is part of group "disk" (6). Amanda is set up like the following: amanda:x:33:6:Amanda user:/var/lib/amanda:/bin/bash Any thoughts? -- Cheers, Karl Bellve, Ph.D. ICQ # 13956200 Biomedical Imaging Group TLCA# 7938 University of Massachusetts Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: (508) 856-6514 Fax: (508) 856-1840 PGP Public key: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
