Hi,
i´m trying to configure my first backup of a windows host.
We doing backups all night with other configs with this server from
linux hosts.
So i could say: The server works
No we added a new config for a windows host and this does not work.
What i have done until now:
Reading the wiki
http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Backup_client#Windows_client
And googled around.
On the Server:
Checked if the amanda Debian package we use is compiled with
"--with-smbclient=/usr/bin/smbclient"
checked if smbclient is under /usr/bin
Install samba
created new amanda.conf
edited disklist
edited amandapass
created vtape
added to /etc/hosts
"IP-Address FQDN-Client clientname clientname.workgroupname"
On the Client
added to c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
"IP-Adress FQDN-server servername servername.workgroupname"
Tested:
From Server:
Ping to FQDN-Client => OK
Ping to clientname => OK
Ping to clientname.workgroupname =>ok
smbclient connect from Server to client works with same username and
passwort which is set in amandapass
From Client:
ping to FQDN-Server => OK
Ping to servername => OK
ping to servername.workgroup => ok
But an amcheck configname gets an :
"selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK"
The message apears every time, i tried the FQDN, the Clientname and
clientname.workgroup
The same message apears if i deactivate the network card on the windows
host. So i think that there is a problem on the server.
Can´t find a sulotion for this.
Did i have to configure more on the client?
Did i haven´t done something important?
Would be great if someone could tell me the magic to get this working.
thanks
BB
