Gentoo Full Text Bug Listing

Opened: 2004-01-06 09:06 0000

I'm having enough difficulty with this that I'm going to report it as a bug
even 
though it may be a config ussue (it SHOULDN"T be this hard!).

# emerge -s samba

      Description: SAMBA is a suite of SMB and CIFS client/server programs for
UNIX

Amanda works as expected for Linux clients, but won't contact a Windows PC.  
I have another amanda server from which I'm migrating (Debian sarge) and it
works OK.  I've copied over all the configuration files, with appropriate 
modifications for the new amanda server (including /etc/amandapass).

$ amcheck -c Humbug

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: vishnu.fmp.com: selfcheck request timed out.  Host down?
Client check: 1 host checked in 30.000 seconds, 1 problem found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.4)

Smbclient works properly for a login (smbclient //Humbug/c g00ber -U fmouse)
and
displays files.

tcpdump shows no traffic, so it looks like amanda isn't even trying.

I've tried compiling amanda from source manually and installing it, but no
luck.

I have to get this fixed, so I'll be happy to try any experiements any of the
developers want me to.

------- Comment #2 From Lindsay Haisley 2004-01-06 16:02:33 0000 -------

Gladly!

I've tried backing down the samba version to a level of 2.2.8a, which is the
latest stable level, I believe, but it doesn't help.  I also set the target
Windows system netbios names in /etc/samba/lmhosts to no avail.  Relevant 
points, in summary:

*  The same amanda/samba config works on a parallel Debian box from which the
   amanda and samba configs were taken and re-locallized.

*  Amanda works OK to back up other Linux boxes on the LAN.

*  Samba works, and I can browse the amanda server from a Windows box.

*  smbclient works.  I can browse the files on the Win box from
   the Linux amanda host and retrieve them.

*  Tcpdump shows no traffic between the Linux box and the Windows box, even
   though amanda reports that it's unable to contact the Win box.

*  A similar config for amanda to back up my wife's business computer (Win98)
   also fails, although it works on the Debian box from which it was taken.
