Hi: That's exactly what I have in inetd.conf, if I typed it from command line, it would sit there for 30 seconds and stop and create a log file at /tmp/amanda - amandad.20050316134621.debug.
Here are last few lines of this log file - time 30.007: dgram_recv: timeout after 30 seconds amandad: error receiving message: timeout amandad: time 30.008: error receiving message: timeout amandad: time 30.008: pid 939 finish time Wed Mar 16 13:46:51 2005 Thanks.

Is the line /etc/inetd.conf correct? Something like this: amanda dgram udp wait amanda /usr/local/libexec/amandad amandad What happens if you start /usr/local/libexec/amandad on the commandline? It should sit there waiting for 30 seconds and stop. It should also create a debug file named /tmp/amanda/amanda.DATETIMESTAMP.debug. If you typed something the command stops immediatly and logs something about "socket operation on non-socket", otherwise it logs "timeout" (Not sure about exact words). -- Paul Bijnens, Xplanation Tel +32 16 397.511 Technologielaan 21 bus 2, B-3001 Leuven, BELGIUM Fax +32 16 397.512 http://www.xplanation.com/ email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************************** * I think I've got the hang of it now: exit, ^D, ^C, ^\, ^Z, ^Q, F6, * * quit, ZZ, :q, :q!, M-Z, ^X^C, logoff, logout, close, bye, /bye, * * stop, end, F3, ~., ^]c, +++ ATH, disconnect, halt, abort, hangup, * * PF4, F20, ^X^X, :D::D, KJOB, F14-f-e, F8-e, kill -1 $$, shutdown, * * kill -9 1, Alt-F4, Ctrl-Alt-Del, AltGr-NumLock, Stop-A, ... * * ...
