Attempts to test binary install on client

amandad.exe fails to launch

Is the binary supposed to work with XP?
Is the compiled source known to work with XP?

FileTooLargeError-2.4.2p2

[ThomasRatliffDDS]

/usr partition fails to write to tape although it seems to dump to the
holding disk OK.  Nothing is left in the holding disk
(/var/local/storage/hold_amanda).

Is there any FAQ that describes how to Create an Index file from tape?

IndexFiles_CreateFromTape

[ThomasRatliffDDS]

What is the syntax to generate an index file from tape that is usable with
amrecover?

For some reason the MacOSX amanda clients fail to generate an index files.


thanks

disklist format

[ThomasRatliffDDS]

Trying to get this running on MacOSX.

Disks are labeled as /dev/rdisk0,/dev/rdis1, etc.

How does one write the entry for the 9th partition on /dev/rdisk0?  I
tried /dev/rdisk09 but that wasn't correct.

thanks

[ThomasRatliffDDS]

Anyone have amanda running on MacOSX?

MacOSX_CompileError

[ThomasRatliffDDS]

--Client-only compile went OK but wasn't able to get things going from the
host so I thought a complete compile would give me a system I could debug
before working on host connection stuff.  But the full compile fails with

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link cc  -g -O2-o amindexd  amindexd.o
disk_history.o list_dir.o ../common-src/libamanda.la  libamserver.la

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_start_time
make[1]: *** [amindexd] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

And the build --without-libtools gives the same error

Help/direction would be appreciated

thanks
