Yeah, I was tired of the RPM nonsense. I wrote a script that rebuilds all updates every weekend and emails the results. It's worked very nicely thus far. > At this point, I'm very uncertain what could have changed to make > xinetd fuss. Let us know what fixes it. Okay, I seem to have pin-pointed it. I fixed the lines "only_from=hostname" in the xinetd config file for Amanda. What I think probably happened is that my server resolves to more than one name (recent change in departments here at the University), and xinetd was getting the one I hadn't specified. So, I changed the line to the IP address of the host, instead of its hostname, and it's much happier now. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- |Christopher Dahn | Software Engineering Research Group,| |3141 Chestnut St. | Feel the SERG! | |Attn: CS Dept., CAT 186 | http://serg.cs.drexel.edu/ | |Philadelphia, PA 19104 ------------------------------ ------ |Office (PA): 215.895.0203 | "PGP" public key: | |Fax: 215.895.0545 | http://search.keyserver.net/ | ---------------------------------------------------------
