Re: Amanda Solaris + Kerberos5 anyone?

2007-03-06 Thread Klas Heggemann


Are we really the only ones wanting to use amanda with kerberos 5 on  
Solaris?

Feels a bit lonely...


Hi!

Anyone out there using amanda on Solaris with Kerberos 5?

We've been trying to get Amanda working with Kerberos 5 on Solaris  
(10)

with limited success.

We've tried builds with Heimdal and with MIT-kerberos, but have not  
managed

to get a working setup.

Looking at the debug output (amcheck -c), it seems the the initial  
connecetion works OK,

but then someting bails out.

The client seems to accept the initial connection (checking and  
matching the

principal in its .k5amandahosts file)  It then sends an answer that
the server receives but fails to recognize so it gets discarded.  
The client
repeats the ACK with no success and the servers gives up on the  
connection.


Is there anyone that managed to get this working on Solaris and can  
give

any hints?

RE: Amanda Solaris 10

2006-09-23 Thread McGraw, Robert P.

Thanks for your input.

I believe there is a big difference between pre 2.5.1 and 2.5.1. See the
following:

http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Main_Page


http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Configuring_bsd/bsdudp/bsdtcp_authenticatio
n


2.5.1 starts using the secure API which means xinetd or inetd is different.
The zmanda Configuring bsd above talks about his. It talks about how to do
this with xinetd/inetd but Solaris 10 is different. The problem is I am not
sure how this equates to Solaris 10 smf. Some parameters will need to be
added to the smf service entry for amandad to get this to work, I believe. 

I have not done this yet and just wanted to know if someone else has 2.5.1
working with Solaris 10 and see if I am on the right path.

In 2.5.1 when I rum the amrecover I get 

##R##-zorn-[146] ## ~amanda/sbin/amrecover
AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1. Contacting server on zorn ...
NAK: amindexd: invalid service

This is my inetadm -l svc:/network/amanda/udp:default

 proto=udp
 isrpc=FALSE

 you can run inetconv(1M) after inserting your amanda services into

 If you change the path to binaries, you have to edit service manifests

and now my amrecover work just fine.

I will need to look at adding this to the zmanda manual pages.

If problems continue you might consider looking at the packages
on blastwave.org.  Last I looked their x86 version was 2.4.4.
And they compile for Solaris 8 rather than Solaris 2.6.

In a later note you said .amandahosts contained the FQDN name
of the server (x.y.com bkup) while the error message gave
just the alias ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).  I don't know if it makes a difference,
but I always put into .amandahosts both versions.

Blastwave has sparc build platforms and seem to respond to

and ask if they could build it on Sparc Solaris 8.

Or, it really is not hard to build your own.

I think if you remove it (rename it) you should get a different message.
Perhaps also a different message if permissions or ownership are wrong.

IIRC, configure also has a --with-amandahost option.  I wonder if
it was used in the build or not.

Some people also managed to get two different amanda users: on in NIS

In the directory /tmp/amanda  there should be some debug files named

Solaris 8 comes with the 'sgen' driver. I don't think it existed in

I'm having some interesting times with scanners and the sgen driver - as

the problem is related to Amanda at all.

Re: Amanda + solaris

2002-06-23 Thread Wayne Richards

Good morning all,

The sgen driver works well on Solaris 8.  That fixed my need to roll my own. 

The only change I needed to recognize the HP C7200-8000 changer was to modify 
the sgen.conf with the following lines:


device-type-config-list=library;

inquiry-config-list=HP,   C7200-8000;

and of course uncomment the:
name=sgen class=scsi target=0 lun=0;
 .
 .
 .
lines.

mtx works very well with the changer and the DLT8000 drives.

Thanks to Jon LaBadie, Thomas Hepper and Craig Dewick.

 Solaris 8 comes with the 'sgen' driver. I don't think it existed in

 I'm having some interesting times with scanners and the sgen driver - as
 yet I haven't tried it with my ADIC 1200D autochanger as that unit has a
 problem with loading/unloading via front panel controls. I don't believe
 the problem is related to Amanda at all.

 Craig.

Re: Amanda + Solaris 8 + StorEdge L9

2001-08-16 Thread Christian Doppler

Hi,

Thank's for pointing me to mtx, now it works.
And yes I was using the sgen from Sol 8 but wanted to go with
amanda stuff only ( chg-scsi ).

Thank's again

servus
cd


 
 Quoting Christian Doppler ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 
  I'm having problems getting that combination running.
 
  Amanda 2.4.2p2, Solaris 8 04/01 on E250, Sun StorEdge L9
 
  Someone may has a System like that running and can give me hints.
 
  I have a System running (Amanda 2.4.2p2, Solaris 2.6 on E450, Sun
  DLT-4700 Changer and using the stctl 1.2.5 driver) since 3 Years
  whitout any problems but now i have to change.
 
  Any Hints would be nice
 
   Hi...
 
   I have the same setup here (mostly, anyway)...  -- Solaris 8 (01/01) on
   an E220R, with a StorEdge L9.  I'm using mtx (http://mtx.sourceforge.net)
   to control the L9, along with an mtx-changer script from Tim Skirvin
   (http://www.killfile.org/~tskirvin/software/mtx-changer/mtx-changer-1.1).
   The chg-scsi driver segfaulted and died on me whenever I tried to use it,
   so the solution became 'mtx' shortly after (I love impossible deadlines).
   :-)
 
   There's a script in the contrib directory of the mtx source tree that
   configures the Solaris 8 'sgen' driver to handle the tapechanger as
   well...  it may be the piece you're missing.
 
   Overall, the whole system works great.  I'm very happy with it.
 
   Hope this helps...
 
   Ted
