If you have already installed other clients then you must have done something more than build amdanda and "make install". There are steps outlined in the docs/INSTALL document specific to CLIENTS that you must have followed if those other clients are working. I'm asking if you also followed them for your server. > > As the messages says selfcheck reported the error, have you > > looked into the selfcheck debug file, normally in /tmp/amanda, > > and checked if it has more detail on the error? > > The amcheck debug file says: > =============================== > amcheck: debug 1 pid 28364 ruid 87 euid 0: start at Thu Nov 6 16:41:58 2003 > amcheck: dgram_bind: socket bound to 0.0.0.0.658 > amcheck: pid 28364 finish time Thu Nov 6 16:42:28 2003 > =============================== I think I asked about the selfcheck file. not the amcheck file. But to extend this notion, remove or move all the /tmp/amanda files and run your failing amcheck. Then scan all the files newly created in /tmp/amanda for errors. -- Jon H.
