Has anyone seen a situation in which amcheck succeeds yet amdump fails with the following:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: mail /home lev 2 FAILED [could not connect to mail] mail /var/spool/mail lev 2 FAILED [could not connect to mail] I know that this is an iptables problem. Because if I turn off iptables the dump succeeds. I have destination ports 10080 - 10083 open to the server for both udp and tcp packets in my iptables on the client: target prot opt source destination ACCEPT tcp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu tcp \ dpt:amanda ACCEPT tcp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu tcp \ dpt:kamanda ACCEPT tcp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu tcp \ dpt:amandaidx ACCEPT tcp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu tcp \ dpt:amidxtape ACCEPT udp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu udp \ dpt:amanda ACCEPT udp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu udp \ dpt:kamanda ACCEPT udp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu udp \ dpt:10082 ACCEPT udp -- cosmic.cosmic.ucar.edu mail.cosmic.ucar.edu udp \ dpt:10083 I am using a RedHat 7.2 amanda Server: amanda-server-2.4.2p2-4 on RedHat 7.2 And a RedHat 8.0 amanda Client: amanda-client-2.4.2p2-9 on RedHat 8.0 Possibly someone can guide me to getting more debug info. The logs just have lines like this: Feb 24 10:14:13 mail xinetd[8852]: START: amanda pid=32616 \ from=10.0.0.108 Mail is the host name of the client and 10.0.0.108 is the server.)
