Hi
I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this one, basically I'm
convinced amandad never runs from inetd, and I"ve spent days on this
so far :-(
I'm trying to install Amanda on a Solaris 8 x86 box, where the client
and server are one and the same. Installation options were --with-
user=amanda, --with-group=sys, --with-amandahosts.
/etc/services contains (amongst other things):
amanda 10080/udp
amandaidx 10082/tcp
amidxtape 10083/tcp
and inetd has (on one line!):
amanda dgram udp wait
amanda /opt/local/libexec/amandad amandad
If I run the above manually (as root or amanda), the /tmp/amanda/
directory is created, as well as the debug file. So I delete that,
kill-HUP inetd just to be safe, and then run amcheck.
Nov 24 12:00:27 hostname inetd[168]: [ID 858011
daemon.warning] /opt/local/libexec/amandad: Hangup
Nov 24 12:00:28 hostname last message repeated 38 times
Nov 24 12:00:28 hostname inetd[168]: [ID 667328 daemon.error]
amanda/udp server failing (looping), service terminated
amcheck comes up with the timeout error (selfcheck failed)
ls -lu on amandad shows it never ran in the first place. So I'm very
confused - help!
Also I'm not 100% as to what should be going on with .amandahosts, at
present I have it in ~amanda, containing 'hostname amanda' and this
seems OK.
Thanks
- John
