Hi all I'm running amanda 2.4.2p2 on a RH box as my backup server. I installed the amanda client on my (sol8) firewall on Friday, and set up a rule for the server to get to the firewall for amanda services - amcheck runs fine and reports no errors. But when my amdump kicks off at night, my report says:
firewall.unter /export/home/rebecca lev 0 FAILED [could not connect to firewall.unterlaw.com] In /tmp/amanda on the firewall, I have all of the *.debug files one would expect to see # cd /tmp/amanda # ls amandad.20031117153500.debug amandad.20031119041352.debug runtar.20031120030511.debug sendbackup.20031119041352.debug amandad.20031118030502.debug amandad.20031119153507.debug selfcheck.20031117153500.debug sendbackup.20031120030744.debug amandad.20031118030754.debug amandad.20031120030511.debug selfcheck.20031118153504.debug sendbackup.20031120041558.debug amandad.20031118041513.debug amandad.20031120030744.debug selfcheck.20031119153507.debug sendsize.20031118030503.debug amandad.20031118153503.debug amandad.20031120041558.debug sendbackup.20031118030754.debug sendsize.20031119030508.debug amandad.20031119030508.debug runtar.20031118030503.debug sendbackup.20031118041513.debug sendsize.20031120030511.debug amandad.20031119030759.debug runtar.20031119030508.debug sendbackup.20031119030759.debug # vi sendbackup.20031120030744.debug sendbackup: debug 1 pid 8244 ruid 1005 euid 1005 start time Thu Nov 20 03:07:44 2003 /usr/local/libexec/sendbackup: version 2.4.2p2 sendbackup: got input request: GNUTAR /export/home/rebecca 0 1970:1:1:0:0:0 OPTIONS |;bsd-auth;index;exclude-list=/usr/local/lib/ama nda/exclude.gtar; parsed request as: program `GNUTAR' disk `/export/home/rebecca' lev 0 since 1970:1:1:0:0:0 opt `|;bsd-auth;index;exclude-list=/usr/local/lib/amanda/exclude.gtar;' sendbackup: exclude list file "/usr/local/lib/amanda/exclude.gtar" does not exist, ignoring sendbackup: try_socksize: send buffer size is 65536 sendbackup: stream_server: waiting for connection: 0.0.0.0.32886 sendbackup: stream_server: waiting for connection: 0.0.0.0.32887 sendbackup: stream_server: waiting for connection: 0.0.0.0.32888 waiting for connect on 32886, then 32887, then 32888 sendbackup: stream_accept: timeout after 30 seconds sendbackup: timeout on data port 32886 sendbackup: stream_accept: timeout after 30 seconds sendbackup: timeout on mesg port 32887 sendbackup: stream_accept: timeout after 30 seconds sendbackup: timeout on index port 32888 sendbackup: pid 8244 finish time Thu Nov 20 03:09:14 2003 The firewall is trying to do it's thing..but it can't get back to the server...what's up with that?
