amrecover: no 'bsdtcp' security driver available

[marsh]

I've set up amanda on my Centos 5.1 x86_64 fileserver. I compiled amanda-2.6.0p1 from src. This fileserver is both the amanda server and client. I have done several days of backups successfully and now I want to do some restore tests but am running into problems.

# amrecover -C DailySet1
amrecover: no 'bsdtcp' security driver available for host 'aais1.company.com'

I tried to google this error and most responses seemed to indicate problems with the xinetd.d/amanda configuration.

my xinetd.d/amanda config file

service amanda
{
only_from = aais1.compendiabio.com
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = amanda
group = disk
groups = yes
server = /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amandad
server_args = -auth=bsd amdump
disable = no
}

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I would recommend using "local" auth everywhere -- then you don't have to worry about xinetd at all.

That worked, many thanks.
