I am in the process of upgrading various older OpenBSD machines to 4.5. As a part of this I am upgrading the Amanda clients on them.
I have discoverd that (at least on 4,5) somewhere between Amanda version 2.50.p1 and 2.5.2p1, they changed something that is causing it to fail, on OpenBSD 4.5. here is the error message that I am getting: 192.168.1.2:wd0f 0 dumper: [could not connect DATA stream: can't connect stream to 192.168.1.2 port 24376: Connection refused] (13:48:23) This is on a network that consists of only a crossover cable to eliminate firewall issues. Amanda runs a daemon on the client, that runs as use amanda. This daemon and the Master Amanda amchine set up various streams of communications that pas data and cotrol signals back and forth. Is there some reason that the daemon could nut open a socket in this port range? -- One of the main causes of the fall of the roman empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs.
