Hello,
I have a mini network with a host and a client (laptop) which is backed
up with amanda for years.
Now I upgraded the laptop to linux 2.2.16 (SuSE 7.0) and whith the
result that I cannot backup the laptop anymore. Even worse, the entire
amdump hangs and does not terminate anymore.
What I have done so far is:
Installed and compiled amanda 2.4.2
Installed, patched and compiled GNUtar-1.12
Using .amandahosts instead of BSD authorisation
There are bad thing I can see:
1. Many warnings when compiling the server on function 'strncmp'
Example: amadmin.c:1300: warning: integer overflow in expression
2. Warnings in amdump as:
dumper: pid 2334 setsockopt(SO_RCVLOWAT): Protocol not available
3. In the clients sendsize.debug is an abort-message as
