Hi there!
I was just wondering if anyone has successfully configured amanda to
backup clients running xinetd rather than inetd!
If so could someone let me know what you need to put in /etc/xinetd.conf
'cos I'm really stumped, I've tried the following:
service amanda
{
flags = REUSE NAMEINARGS
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = backup
server = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
server_args = amandad
}
And tried permutations of missing out the flags and server_args
arguments. In all these cases when I run amcheck on the amanda
server it fails on this client with permission denied errors for each
disk and the dumpdates file. Before you ask, no its not
a permissions problem because when I use inetd with:
amanda dgram udp wait backup /usr/local/libexec/amandad amandad
in /etc/inetd.conf it works fine! The thing is I need to be using
xinetd and not inetd. Can anyone help?
Ray.
