etimeout

2004-03-31 Thread pascal thomas
hallo and good morning again,

is it dangerous to reduce the value of etimeout in the amanda.conf file when using 
hard-disk dump? I think a default of 300 is very high. Can the result of dump be 
damaged if it is of the value 100?

with regards

desaster recovery

2004-03-24 Thread pascal thomas
Hallo everyone,
I´d like to know if it is possible to prepare a floppy-disk to reinstall an OS with 
it. E.g. a harddisk crashs and a full dump has been made before of every partition. I 
want to use a new PC with a nonformated harddisk drive then insert a floppy-disk and 
run amanda. Is that possible and if yes, how?

Maybe that question is somehow crazy but that´s what they want me offer them at my 
practical training. I have no idea.

With regards 
Pascal (Köln, Collogne)




amanda and firewall

2004-03-23 Thread pascal thomas

Good morning,

I would like to know how an amanda RPM can be installed with the option of a special 
port range for firewalling rules. e.g udp port range 890-895. How exactly has the 
syntax of the rpm command to look like? As I have already installed Amanda and 
configured the amanda.conf file I would also like to know if it is possible to commit 
the portrange of amanda by hindsight?

with regards and hopeful to get a satisfying answer

rebooting impossible

2004-03-22 Thread pascal thomas
I think I have big problems with my Fedora Core 1 operating system. After I have 
tested amanda by backing up big partitions from a client, my Backupserver can´t reboot 
properly. It hangs and the message: "activating swap area" is the last message printed 
on screen.

What could have happened?
