My point is, on _my_ amanda server, that files does NOT exist:
Then create an empty file with the name /etc/amandates and that is
owned by amanda.
And that should do it.

Dear all,
I've now configured an exclusion list for use with Amanda. At first I used
these entries:
*.ora
*.dbf
*.dmp
*.dmp.gz*
but then I re-read the Amanda documentation, which states:
When AMANDA attempts to exclude a file or directory it does so relative to
the area being archived. For

In the last few days I've started seeing a couple of messages like

it was just one server, now it is two.
Interesting.
Is anyone else backuping up an amanda cygwin client, where the cygwin
client sits behind a firewall and the server sits on the outside of the
firewall?
I need to ask a few questions on your firewall settings.
Thanks

Hi,
It's not a bug in tar, it's a bug in amanda. The new file format is not
compatible whit the way we read it.
I will send a patch soon.

Hello list:
I have been searching the web for a while now and haven't been able to
find an answer. Is it possible to set one backup server to handle two
different subnets? The backup server is ready to go, two configured NICs.
Any guidance on this issue would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Hello:
Yes, the server is the router between the two subnets.
How do I configure the /etc/xinetd.d/amanda only_from section? Here is
what I have (example...):
only_from = 1.2.3.0 4.5.6.0
Should this allow access from both subnets? 1.2.3.0 works fine but not
4.5.6.0.
Thanks

My point is that I do NOT have any /etc/amandates on server, NOR

own, and amanda will use it; I remain unclear about this file, because I

As far as I remember, I do create it by hand

Amanda is design to backup directories and file systems, not just
