I'm trying to configure a couple of new amanda clients, and when the
amanda server was unable to get a response from them I looked in the
system logs on one of the clients and I saw:
Aug 11 08:32:27 client inetd[435]: /usr/local/libexec/amandad (pid
2479): exit status 127
Aug 11 08:32:27 client inetd[435]: /usr/local/libexec/amandad (pid
2480): exit status 127
Aug 11 08:32:27 client inetd[435]: amanda/udp server failing (looping or
being flooded), service terminated for 10 min
The first two lines are actually repeated a whole bunch of times before
the final message...
Any idea what could be causing this?
My inetd entry looks like:
amanda dgram udp wait backup /usr/local/libexec/amandad amandad
Or was it "nowait", and you changed it to "wait" (or fixed the username
"backup"), but forgot to sig-HUP the inetd process after you fixed it?
What happens when you execute the command "/usr/local/libexec/amandad"
as user "backup" manually?
It should timeout after 30 seconds; or if you type something on the
keyboard, it will abort immediatly.
