amanda 2.3.0



Hi,

  Any of you using amanda for backing-up ?

  I have just install it on an alpha 2000/300 runnig 3.2C 

  The results are:

--------8<--------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------  

# amcheck-2.3.0 fenix
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
ERROR: statfs /dumps/amanda: No such file or directory
ERROR: /dev/a:: not an amanda tape.
       (expecting a new tape)
NOTE: skipping tape-writeable test.
Server check took 9.823 seconds.

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: fenix: [access as bin not allowed from root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
Client check: 1 hosts checked in 0.108 seconds, 1 problems found.

(brought to you by Amanda 2.3.0)

--------8<--------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------  

  I don't understand any of the errors:

  How do I tell not to use a holding disk, in order to not get the default 
  disk '/dumps/amanda'

  What is the problem with /dev/a:  if when I do 

  # mt -f /dev/a: rewind

  it works find.

  I created my /.rhost (for testing) and told options.h not to force-user
  and it still say access as bin not allowed from root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  As you could see I'm a little lost...  any help would be appreciated

  I'll sumarize, thank you all.
