I cvsup'd Ports (tag=.) and got amanda 2.4.3b4 for the new client to be put in the backup routine. It was compiled successfully. However, when put to run under xinetd (just like in the other machines) for an 'amcheck', it complains the following extracted from /var/log/messages: > > create debug directory "/tmp/amanda": Permission denied > > I checked its permissions and it's ok. I have done 777 for it but it didn't work. The other machines running 2.4.3b2 create this directory without problems. > What are the full permission bits of /tmp, that is, the output of: ls -ld /tmp/ with the trailing slash? Have you mounted /tmp with any special options? What is the output of: mount | fgrep `df /tmp/ | awk '{mpt=$6} END {print mpt}'` Does the /tmp/amanda directory exist before amanda attempts to create it? If yes, what are the permissions on it?
