Greeting Jean-Louis;

Trying to figure out why amanda can't backup this machine, one of the
things I noticed in /etc, is that on the shop box, which works, there
is not an /etc/xinetd.d but it has an old-xinetd.d with a single
stanza amanda file in it.

An ls -lau shows that file, /etc/old-xinetd.d/amanda was apparently
accessed a few minutes ago by my amcheck from the server.

However, on the new install on the machine that is failing to allow
the connection, there is an /etc/xinet.d, with an amanda file in it
with an old last access date/time, was not 'touched' when I ran the
amcheck.  Its last access date/time is I believe, the date/time of
the installation itself.

That amanda-common is 2.6.1p1 IIRC.

amcheck says:
WARNING: lathe: selfcheck request failed: Connection refused

There has been enough configuration done that amrecover on this
machine works.

There is a /var/backups/.amandahosts file, its a link to
/etc/amandahosts BUT, in /etc/.amandahosts.  I'll mv it to
/etc/amandahosts. Ran amcheck, no change and that file was not
accessed.

What do I check next?
netstat -na |grep 10080

You should see an UDP open on that port, else it means xinetd is not
running/not listening for amanda.

Olivier
gene@lathe:/etc/xinetd.d$ netstat -na |grep 10080
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:10080           0.0.0.0:*
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:10080           0.0.0.0:*

IIRC thats good.

It's not good, this is for bsd auth, you want to use bsdtcp.

Next?

Thanks Olivier.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
