-bash# amcheck DailySet1

I get the following error

The error messages seem pretty explicit about what the problem is.

Are you running amcheck as the amanda user? What are the permissions on /etc/amandates? Are you using SELinux? What do you see in /var/log/amanda? When you backup a Samba share, the actual Amanda client is the linux box that has mounted the amanda share. Is that how you have your DLE set up in the disklist?

Hi ,

i have disabled the selinux by setenforce 0 command.

Now the problem has been resolved by disabling th selinux enforcing.

Amanda server is able to take the backup.............




enjoy
