Start in the disklist and get rid of any localhost entries, use only FQDN's there. Make sure your /etc/hosts file is complete, including a direct translation of the servers FQDN to the servers IP address. And make sure the .amandahosts file is correct, including perms, which for security should be 0600. Amanda will read it with more permissive perms ok, but you don't exactly want half the planet reading that. Then make sure the amanda related files in /etc/xinetd.d are correct. -- Cheers, Gene AMD [EMAIL PROTECTED] 320M [EMAIL PROTECTED] 512M 99.27% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved.
