I've just inherited an amanda setup that has apparently never worked properly. The specific problem I'm trying to sort at the moment is summed up below.

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: NAK finn.internal.domain.com: access as amanda not allowed from [EMAIL PROTECTED]: cannot open /usr/amanda/etc/amanda/.amandahosts: Permission denied
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.002 seconds, 1 problem found

finn is a Windows server, and as far as I can see the client is setup the same on this as on another windows machine that is backing up ok. Its got 'amanda' and 'amanda_backup' as users of the machines, amanda is installed in c:\usr on both. There's a .amandahosts file on both with the same in:

orinoco x.x.x.x
orinoco.internal.domain.com x.x.x.x

The only difference I can see is that finn is win 2000, and the one that works is win 2003. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks,

John
