Greetings all! A little while ago, I suddenly started getting this error message in my Amanda reports:
ERROR: server: [access as backup not allowed from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Where "server" is my server name, Not "localhost" or anything). Thus, the server which actually runs AMANDA is not getting backed up! All the others are, though. I did a search in the archives & did not find any message pertaining to this problem. On Friday, 10/24, everything seemed all right, but not until the next Wednesday did I get a report: *** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY! These dumps were to tapes . I think around this time, we noticed that /var was FULL. I deleted as much as I could, and continued with normal operation. But later that day, I got the "access as backup not allowed" error. Ever since then, my backup server has not gotten a good backup of itself. Any ideas what could cause this? I checked permissions in all the usual areas, nothing looks like user "backup" does not have access to it. wab
