Hi Stephen - At first glance this appears like you might have built the amanda client stuff with the tcp/udp portrange but not the amanda server. I'm not sure since I'm using 2.4.2p2, so perhaps with this newer version the debug messages are different. Does the amanda user have permission to open up privileged ports (<1024 -- I think)? That almost seems the problem since if that user can't open up a connection on port 960 to listen, but it can on 59116.
I could be wrong though ;) -doug -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Doug Silver Network Manager Quantified Systems, Inc ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Fri, 5 Apr 2002, Stephen Carville wrote: > This is getting ridiculous!
