Re: Can you set eject keyword with chg-chio?
Paul- I ended up hacking up "chg-chs" to issue the appropriate chio commands to work with my Adic 1200C on FreeBSD, since it too reads a config file. It's pretty simple to do; you just look through the code for the string "$CHS" and replace that line with an appropriate chio command. I'd include the code, but I've hacked it up yet again to work with my own changer program that talks to a Lago LS/380L via a serial port. Ultimately, chg-scsi would be the preferred changer. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to build on FreeBSD since the introduction of CAM and the subsequent (much later) removal of the older SCSI subsystem. I think I'll dig out the Adic and see if I can get chg-scsi working sometime. -Ben -- Benjamin LewisThank goodness modern convenience is a Database Analyst/Programmer thing of the remote future.

Re: Please help: Try to backup a smb share
Mike, Back when I was doing samba shares a while back I had one share I could never get sucessfully backed up. The reason I think is that we had had "multiple NT domains" and the permissions were "whacked out".. Here are some things to check: When you configured amanda did you specify: --with-samba-user= The default according to the docs is "backup" Did you create a "backup" account in your NT domain? If so does the "share" allow the backup account Full access?? Those are somethings to check. Also: Try running smbclient command line, authenticate, and list the share through the "backup" account until you get it worked out... then try amcheck again.

Re: Submitting a chg-zd-mtx, with barcode support, and 9 slot support
This is my latest update to chg-zd-mtx, and most likely my last, barring any bugs in this one. It incorporates all bugfixes posted to me in the last week (thank you). Changes: - moved 'all' user set variables to a separate config file called 'changerfile'.conf. By this, I mean if you have this in amanda.conf changerfile "/etc/amanda/DailySet1/something" then your config file will be /etc/amanda/DailySet1/something.conf. I have included mine ADIC.conf as an example of _all_ the variables that are to be set in it. Set up in amanda.conf has not changed. - added a new internal variable: $drivenum - returns the /dev/nst# number. Whould work with other device names also. The above 2 changes gives this chg-zd-mtx the ability to work on multiple drives at the same time, instead of having multiple copies of it for each Amanda config. Bugs: I don't believe it is a bug with this script, but rather amtape. Some times when running 'amtape update', it will cycle through the tapelist multiple times. I had this happen a few times before the above changes also, but maybe only once or twice (I don't run update that often, since 30 DLT's take for ever.) However, if someone sees what's causing it, I appreciate it. -- Jason Hollinden SMG Systems Admin chgzdmtx.tar.gz

Re: dump problem on SCO OpenServer client?
Alexandre Oliva,
I did some checking and the dump program that Amanda found is used for dumping
selected parts of an object file given to it. However, I could not find the "actual"
dump" program on the system. I did find a "sysdump" utility that dumps memory images,
but I
do not think this is what you had in mind. I have a sneaking suspicion that SCO left
it out on purpose as they have their own "Backup Manager" software that comes with the
system "ArcServe" (crap) tape server software that you must purchase.
Looks like it is back to the crappy SCO ArcServe software.

This doesn't look like the filesystem dump program. Looks like some
other dump program with unrelated purposes. Check the OpenServer
manual for the location of the actual dump program, and tell Amanda
where it is, by removing config.cache and setting the DUMP environment
variable before re-running configure.
The actual dump is likely to be in the same directory as restore.
Hopefully, configure found that one. `amadmin config version' will
tell you where.

/dev/sg5 is a changer. The tape device is /dev/nst0, and that's what

Did you consider building from sources, as per the recommendation in
the Amanda manual? It might be that Amanda configure found some
options inappropriate for your environment.

I hope you're using the tapetype program in 2.4.2 or 2.4.2p1. The one
in 2.4.1p1 may indeed take days to complete.

Re: confused by .amandahosts (was Re: Client problem)
... Thats the normal behaviour of an hosts file, but I can't find any on my client. Why does the amanda server (2.4.1) back him up properly without having an .amandahosts file? Look at one of your amandad*debug files on the client and see if it has the USE_AMANDAHOSTS flag. If that is not there, but BSD_SECURITY flag is, you're using /etc/hosts.equiv or .../.rhosts rather than just .../.amandahosts. Another possibility is that you didn't look in the right place. What user is running amandad (look at the inetd.conf line)? What's the home directory for that user on the client? That's where the .amandahosts file should be. mike John R.

Re: Pre-compiled Sun 2.5.1 binaries?
Here is the output from config.log .. as you will see, there is an I/O. In
a nutshell, the /usr partition is fragged - due to some poor administration
by a previous sysadmin. Since it is a production machine, I cannot take it
down to fix - at least not for the short-term, but I need to back it up -
which is why I want to install the Amanda client on it - which is why I need
a pre-compilied binary to test.
