I am running 2.2=STABLE on 2 of the machines. I found a port for amanda 2.3 and installed it. I would have prefered 2.4, but the sources do not comple cleany on FreeBSD yet :-(. Now here is the problem. When I run amcheck from the tape server (kodiek) I get the folowing errors from the FreeBSD machines. ERROR: koala: [access as bin not allowed from root@kodiak.fas.com] The amanda daemon is in inted,conf to be run as root. The port installed the daemn as owned by bin. Even changing this ownership to rooot did not change the message. The amanda docs mention that the amanda user needs to be able to rlogin. I can't figure out how to do this since the home directory for bin is /nonexistent. Does anyone have this working? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 770-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy!
