I'm trying to get a Debian stable box set up to be a Amanda tapehiots. It's _almost_ working. The only serious remaining problem is that it can't see it self! This can be exhibited by atempteing to rlogi8n or rsh from itself to itself. if I try to rlogin, I get:
debuan.xxx.com: Invalid argument If I try to rsh, I get: Rhe same thing. The amanda debug file says: send req failed: invalid argument The machine is a potato machine, with the Progeny upgrades, and the 2.4.9 kernel. It's name is in /etc/hosts both as the simple, and FQDN formates. It;s resovable in the DNS, bith foward, and reverse. I tride changing /etc/nsswitch.conf so that it checks dns before the local files. No change in the failuer. What;s _reallY- wierd, is I have a similarly setup machine at home, and it works fine!
