I have been trying to get this issue resloved all week, and finally
decided to ask others. I did searching on the web and tried what I
have read, but no success.
I am using Amanda 2.5.1. Yes, I know it is old, but it works. Well, it
had been working until I moved everything to a different machine. The
new machine is running Fedora 14. Amanda is built from source. I used
the configuration files (amanda.conf, disklist,...) from my old set
up. I am backing up the data to disk. My linux backups work without
issue. My Windows boxes all fail with this error when running amcheck:
WARNING: tempserv1: selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK
The planner debug file has lines like the following:
planner: time 0.099: connect_portrange: connect to 192.168.52.131.10080 failed:\
Connection refused
planner: stream_client: Could not bind to port in range 50000 - 50040.
planner: stream_client: Could not bind to any port: Connection refused
security_seterror(handle=0x81d2ea0, driver=0xd27140 (BSDTCP) error=Connection r\
efused)
I built the programs with configure options that included the following:
--with-udpportrange=850,854 --with-tcpportrange=50000,50040
--with-smbclient=/usr/bin/smbclient
I did copy over the .amandahosts file from the old machine to the
knew. I also made sure that xinetd amanda file was the same. Well,
here is the current one:
service amanda
{
disable = no
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = operator
group = root
server = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad
server_args = -auth=bsd amdump
}
I dont think the one from the old machine had the -auth=bsd amdump lines.
The ip address, 192.168.52.131, is the localhost. Netstat show the following:
tcp 0 0 :::10082 :::* LIST
EN
udp 0 0 :::10080 :::*
So the ports are open. I have turned off iptables. Both 127.0.0.1 and
192.168.52.131 are in the hosts.allow file.
I do have other older fedora installs with the amanda 2.5.1 that are
able to talk to otehr windows boxes without issue.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try next. I think the
problem is simple, but I must have my blinders on and can't see the
solution.
Thanks
