Re: Amanda Solaris + Kerberos5 anyone?
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? /klas
RE: Amanda Solaris 10
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 SCOPENAME=VALUE name=amanda endpoint_type=dgram proto=udp isrpc=FALSE wait=TRUE exec=/local/Amanda/amanda/libexec/amandad user=amanda default bind_addr= default bind_fail_max=-1 default bind_fail_interval=-1 default max_con_rate=-1 default max_copies=-1 default con_rate_offline=-1 default failrate_cnt=40 default failrate_interval=60 default inherit_env=TRUE default tcp_trace=FALSE default tcp_wrappers=FALSE So my question is how do I get -auth=bsd amdump amindexd amidxtaped in the exec=/local/Amanda/amanda/libexec/amandad Answer to your second question.

In this doc you will findalso some notes on how to configure the sgen driver.Hope this helps for the first steps.

Re: Amanda + Solaris 8 + StorEdge L9
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...
