Folks-
I have been following this thread closely, as last weekend I upgraded a
redhat 6.2 box to 7.1 and am now getting the same errors. I am now
getting during this during client checks:
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sdd1 (sdd1): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sdc1 (sdc1): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sdb1 (sdb1): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sda5 (sda5): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sda1 (sda1): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not access /dev/sda6 (sda6): Permission denied]
ERROR: 7.1box: [can not read/write /etc/dumpdates: Permission denied]
Client check: 8 hosts checked in 0.604 seconds, 7 problems found
Everything was working correctly before, but I double checked the
.amandahosts file was properly set up, I also checked file permissions of
the devices and /etc/dumpdates. I didn't find anything useful to go on in
/tmp/amanda/ and chkconfig shows amanda as being on.
I verified xinetd which includes what everyone in other postings seems to
have:
service amanda
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = ambackup
server = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
disable = no
}
I even tried what John Jackson suggested by running common-src/security
(which is a great utility to know about!), but it says everything checks
out.
Was there a solution to this thread?? If so, it wasn't in the archives and
I missed seeing the post. If not, does anyone have any other ideas, I
seem to have hit a wall here.
TIA...
