Any thoughts on what might be going on here? Last week I began to have numerous Win10 clients failing in this fashion:
backup@scriptor:/home/manager amcheck -c campus shipping.foo.bar Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- ERROR: shipping.foo.bar: Server validation Failed. Please register server with client. Client check: 1 host checked in 0.072 seconds. 1 problem found. Taking a look at the ZWC debug log on that client, I see the following: 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Entering ExecuteValidateServerJob 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Server address to be validated from the list of authentic server = 192.168.x.x 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Server name = 192.168.x.x 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Authentic Server name = scriptor.foo.bar 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Server Validation Failed - Server 192.168.x.x With IP 192.168.x.x is not registered 11020:9144:23/2/2018:08:16:7:22::CZWCJobHandler : Leaving ExecuteValidateServerJob However, the server is registered with the client: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Zmanda\ZWC\1.0\Install\Servers value is 'scriptor.foo.bar' If I add the server IP (192.168.x.x) to the list of registered Servers, everything checks out fine: backup@scriptor:/home/manager amcheck -c campus shipping.foo.bar Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- Client check: 1 host checked in 0.071 seconds. 0 problems found. (brought to you by Amanda 3.3.6) And the ZWC debug log says: 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Entering ExecuteValidateServerJob 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Server address to be validated from the list of authentic server = 192.168.2.203 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Server name = 192.168.x.x 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Authentic Server name = scriptor.foo.bar 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Authentic Server name = 192.168.x.x 11020:8956:23/2/2018:08:21:17:29::CZWCJobHandler : Leaving ExecuteValidateServerJob Thanks, Chris
