Hello Amanda users,
For some reason I’m not seeing much/any Amanda traffic, I did re-register with
a new email address last month…
Installing Amanda-client on an ununtu system, when I run # amcheck from the
server I’m seeing the following in tcpdump output.
flower.wadsworth.org.516 > biowork2.health1.hcom.health.state.ny.us.amanda:
Flags [R], cksum 0x3d33 (correct), seq 2828866964, win 49640, length 0
11:29:44.054702 ARP, Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has
flower.wadsworth.org tell biowork2.health1.hcom.health.state.ny.us, length 28

is-at 00:14:4f:21:10:c2 (oui Unknown), length 46
That is, Amanda-client is being activated by IPv4 but responding using IPv6. I
know that is mentioned in the mail archives and I have checked, re-installed
xinetd on the client and verified flags are IPv4.
root@biowork2:/etc/ufw/applications.d# more /etc/xinetd.d/amanda

service amanda
{
disable = no
flags = IPv4
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = no
user = amandabackup
group = disk
groups = yes
# server = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad
server = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/amanda/amandad
server_args = -auth=bsdtcp amdump amindexd amidxtaped
}
Either I’m missing a step or I’m not chasing the correct problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
