Hi, First I'll inform you that I'm new to amanda. I use it only locally for now on SuSE 9.0 with an AMD Athlon. If you need to know more, just let my know. Now for my problem. When I first started to use amanda I managed to make one or two backups. Then when I tried to schedule them as cron jobs I began to get the error msg bellow. Since then I can't even run amanda manually. [snip] *** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY!
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: zampo-01. FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: dumper: FATAL must be run setuid root to communicate correctly planner: ERROR zampo: [host zampo.edzen.net: port 32889 not secure] zampo /usr/local/cvsroot RESULTS MISSING [/snip] I belive I have dumper setuid root. It was one of the problems I solved before I managed to create backups with amanda. I used the following command: chmod +s /usr/lib/amanda/dumper Is this the right way to do it? For the planner error, I am confused. How come it complains now, when I worked in the begining. I tried to turn of the firewall without any luck.
