Hello,

You can have one on your server too, if you backup/restore your server too (client and server at once). All in all you don't need that file on your clients. It's just a way where you don't have to tell e. g. amrecover different options, like tape-/index-server or other options you set inside the amanda-client.conf. http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Amanda-client.conf > This is xinetd in client: > service amanda { > only_from = server.domain.com > socket_type = dgram > protocol = udp > wait = yes > user = amanda > group = disk > groups = yes > server = /usr/local/libexec/amandad > server_args = -auth=bsd amdump > disable = no > } > > > The "only_from" part will determine the tape or index server which client > will contact to. Not the client contact the server here. It's the other way around. Inside the (x)inetd.conf you setup services that open ports, other computer can connect to. # man xinetd > Do we still need the amanda-client.conf file? I am a bit confused. See above.
