[McGraw, Robert P.] Actually the cygwin client that is protected by ZoneAlarm firewall is working. I had to add the 0.0.0.0 as a trusted IP in the ZoneAlarm file. I was using this client to test the amanda cygwin build as this was my first attempt. > > Anyway, is there any clue in the /tmp/amanda directory on the client? > There should be a file named selfcheck.datetime.debug. Contents? [McGraw, Robert P.] The client that I really need to backup, is behind a Sonicwall firewall. To test that I can contact the 10080 port I use the netcat (nc) program. The host coriolis is the test cygwin client which is behind the ZoneAlarm firewall. ##R##-zorn->[46] ##> ./nc -z -v -u coriolis 10080 coriolis.xxx.yyy.edu [128.210.n.nnn] 10080 (amanda) open The host mailrelay is the host behind the Sonicwall firewall. I have opened up the firewall to allow the amanda server through for any service. ##R##-zorn->[47] ##> ./nc -z -v -u mailrelay 10080 mailrelay.xxx.yyy.edu [128.210.n.nnn] 10080 (amanda) open They both show that the Amanda server can contact both clients on 10080 UDP port. The following is my amcheck for each client zorn->[42] > ./amcheck -c daily coriolis Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- Client check: 1 host checked in 1.443 seconds, 0 problems found (brought to you by Amanda 2.4.5p1) zorn->[43] > ./amcheck -c daily mailrelay Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- WARNING: mailrelay: selfcheck request timed out.
