Hi Holm
I've just started with amanda on Red Hat. Spent a long night getting it working (with
a lot of help from this list).
Here's my entry in xinetd.conf... (not touched)
==
defaults
{
instances = 60
log_type= SYSLOG authpriv
Sorry about the etiquette.. I was expecting to converse via the mailing list but got a
number of direct responses.
nocomp-user
program is set to DUMP

Hi
I've just installed amanda for the first time. A test amdump gives me the following
report...
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
localhost/etc lev 0 FAILED [disk /etc offline on localhost?]
Any light-shining would be appreciated
thanks
Dirk
Hi - especially Chris Marble and John Jackson...
What a wonderful thing sleep is...
Based on various suggestions, I forced amanda to use GNUTAR.
Running amcheck again, it complained about a non-existant directory (gnutar-lists)
which I created
amdump worked!
Thanks Chris / John for responding
