The backup server and the client are the same machine and the OS used RHEL 3. As I am trying to do an "amrecover -s <hostname> -t <hostname>" to recover a backed up folder, I get the following error: # amrecover -C tendaily -t <hostname> -s <hostname> -d /dev/nst0 AMRECOVER Version 2.5.2p1. Contacting server on <hostname> ... NAK: amindexd: invalid service, add 'amindexd' as argument to amandad I had a amrecover a few months ago and it had worked very well. The only thing that has changed recently is the amanda version. My /etc/xinetd.d/amanda file looks as follows: service amanda { disable = no socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = amandabackup group = disk groups = yes server = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad } service amandaidx { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = amandabackup group = disk groups = yes server = /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd } service amidxtape { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = amandabackup group = disk groups = yes server = /usr/lib/amanda/amidxtaped } Can I get suggestions about what could be the problem ? Thanks in advance, Yogesh
