Hi, I had a working amanda configuration with amanda-2.5.0p2. My backup server and the backup client are the same machine. And the OS used is RHEL3. To upgrade the configuration to version 2.5.1p3, I simply downloaded the amanda-backup_server rpm for version 2.5.1p3 and used the "rpm -Uvh manda-backup_server-2.5.1p3-1.rhel3.i386.rpm" command. Amanda got upgraded successfully, my existing amanda configurations as well as the amanda files in the xinetd.d remainded intact. Later I checked the configurations using the "amcheck <config_name>" command and it didn't return any error. I just want to know whether this is the right way to upgrade from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1. Especially my amanda config file in xinetd.d didn't have any "-auth" directive and I had read that the "-auth" directive is necessary in 2.5.1. Also I find a new file called amanda-client.conf in 2.5.1 which I didn't find in 2.5.0. How significant is this file and will my configuration work properly without editing this file?
