Dustin, I'm kind of shooting in the dark here (not having tried to set up amanda client on my Mac desktop yet), but when I installed Timbuktu, I had to open a Timbuktu specific port in the Mac OS X firewall. If Amanda is coming in on another port, might it be necessary to do that for Amanda? Assuming, of course, that most everyone has the firewall turned on. --------------- Chris Hoogendyk - O__ ---- Systems Administrator c/ /'_ --- Biology & Geology Departments (*) \(*) -- 140 Morrill Science Center ~~~~~~~~~~ - University of Massachusetts, Amherst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------- Erdös 4
