Re: Amanda Install question

[Galen Johnson]

looks like either your path is incorrect or you need some packages or both. you need to make sure your path includes the following: PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/ccs/bin. There may be be a link to the gnu tools as well but I can't recall what that path is right offhand. I'm also including a build script to help you out...

I'd also recommend you subscribe to the amanda list. Instructions are on the amanda.org web page.

I tried tosend this question tothe amanda users list,
but haven't been able to figure out the correct e-mail
address. So if anyone can help me out I would
appreciate it.

I am kind of new to unix. I am trying to install
amanda 2.4.3 on my Solaris 8 system.
I downloaded the file
Then unpacked it with gzip -d amanda-2.4.3.tar.gz
Then tar -xvf amanda-2.4.3.tar
cd amanda-2.4.3

# ./configure --with-user=amanda --with-group=backup

This looked like it ran ok, so I ran make and here is
where I ran into problems.

Bunch of stuff on the screen

I have searched the archives and read the FAQs but
can't figure this out. Can anyone help?
