Hi all,

 

I've compiled a 2.6.1p1 client on Solaris 9 earlier this year, and for
dumps it works great, but if I use amrecover to connect to my backup
server (tapehost and index host are the same box), I get the following
message from amrecover:

 

NAK: user root from <client_host_name> is not allowed to execute the
service amindexd: Please add the line "<client_host_name> root amindexd
amidxtaped" to /home/amanda/.amandahosts on the client

 

The funny thing is, according to /etc/passwd, the 'amanda' user's
homedir is /export/home/amanda, where .amandahosts lives quite happily,
and with the required info in place.  I can't create an 'amanda'
directory under /home due to Solaris' *&%*^& ridiculous insistence that
/home be reserved for the user automounter.

 

I looked as closely as I could at the configure options, but I can't see
where I can easily change how/where amrecover looks for .amandahosts.

 

Any suggestions?  I don't recall having such a problem when we had 2.4.4
and 2.5.1 clients on the same host.

 

Cheers

Steve
