Do you have the amindexd service configured in (x)inetd?
Does it show up in a 'netstat -l' ?

amcheck only checks to see if backups would work, not restores,
so it won't tell you if index or tape services are available.

See above.  Also, not related to your current problem, you
should look in the list archives for threads on how using
'localhost' in your disklist can cause problems later on.

In Amanda 2.5.1, amrecover uses Security API. Changes to xinetd configuration 
is required. Please see the following wiki page for detail:

amrecover fails in rel 2.5.1 with NAK: amindexd: invalid service

2006-09-21 Thread David Trusty

Hi,

I just installed release 2.5.1 on a SUSE 10.1 machine.  I was able
to do a backup fine, but when I try to run amrecover, I get this error:

# amrecover Monthly
AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1. Contacting server on localhost ...
NAK: amindexd: invalid service

The amcheck command shows no errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

David
