Hi I have been running amanda 2.4.4 around three months now on two servers One on our main file server the other for a spin out company as part of our SLA. The spin out companies has the exact setup except for Label string and name of the report.
I run by hand amcheck it is in my crontab but every now and then I run it to check. Amanda Tape Server Host Check ----------------------------- WARNING: program /usr/lib/amanda/planner: not setuid-root WARNING: program /usr/lib/amanda/dumper: not setuid-root WARNING: program /usr/sbin/amcheck: not setuid-root Thus I use chmod u+s as root. # chmod u+s /usr/lib/amanda/planner # chmod u+s /usr/lib/amanda/dumper # chmod u+s /usr/sbin/amcheck The above sorts this out bit I have had to do this a few times this week. I haven't got to do this on the other tape server Where is the best place to check why it keeps reverting to the following below. -rwxr-x--- 1 root disk 166883 Jul 1 2004 planner -rwxr-x--- 1 root disk 165718 Jul 1 2004 dumper and also amcheck in /usr/sbin .
