I've been scratching my head over this, FW on the client looks ok to me.
[root@www-stage ~]# /sbin/iptables -L | grep curie
ACCEPT udp -- curieb.wadsworth.org anywhere udp spts:932:948
dpt:amanda
ACCEPT tcp -- curieb.wadsworth.org anywhere tcp
spts:10084:itap-ddtp dpts:10084:itap-ddtp
ACCEPT udp -- curie.wadsworth.org anywhere udp spts:932:948
dpt:amanda
ACCEPT tcp -- curie.wadsworth.org anywhere tcp
spts:10084:itap-ddtp dpts:10084:itap-ddtp
and the it occured to me, the amanda server was built with port
restriction, and I always do so for my clients as I like to avoid
multiple builds if I can, and some client/server pairs have to
traverse our FW.
But this instance of the amanda client was installed from an rpm,
so I'm betting, and based on debug files, believe that the client
is trying to connect back to the server on ports that the server
is not listening to.
I believe I can user amanda_client.conf to restrict the ports, but
wanted to know if this solution seemed right to the amanda community.
Ask if there was another method, ask what the minimal amanda.conf
needed to contain, and which directory, as I've seen some of the
pre-built kits use directories other than /usr/local/etc/amanda/<config>
Yah, a lot of questions, hopefully on the correct path.
thank you,
Brian
