Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2011-11-28 23:35:59 UTC
Thomas,

in F16 amanda seems to have switched to TCP
/etc/xinetd.d/amanda now has
protocol		= tcp

up to F15 included it was UDP

As such, s-c-firewall might need it's amanda rule adjusted.

Do not do anything just yet, I'm creating this bug so I do not forget. Will open 10080 TCP tonight and see tomorrow morning if the backup was OK (last night, with 10080 only open on UDP failed as one would expect)

I'll set the bug NEEDINFO on me for now and I'll add the amanda maintainer to get a second opinion on this (I found no mention on amanda in the F16 release notes and asking Lukas might be quicker than me waiting 24 hours after each change for the daily amanda run to happen)

Comment 2 Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2011-12-01 18:47:13 UTC
Thomas,
did some more digging.
Can you please add TCP (in addition to the existing UDP rule) when a user allows 'Amanda Backup Client'. (old amanda used UDP by default, new one TCP). Alternatively 2 separate selection, 'Amanda Backup Client  with server version up to 3.2' (for 10080 UDP) and 'Amanda Backup Client  with server version 3.3 and up' (for 10080 TCP).

I'll file a separate bug against amanda WRT to my el6 based server not backing up a F16 client. If you would prefer to wait with the change until I got a working backup, set NEEDINFO on me.

Comment 3 Thomas Woerner 2011-12-02 12:32:47 UTC
I'd prefer to wait with the change until you got a working backup. Maybe more changes are needed.

Comment 4 Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2011-12-13 09:15:00 UTC
success.
sorry, early I had fat-fingered my edit of /etc/xinetd.d/amanda on the client when trying to get it to do bsd auth like the server does.

next up, try to get the server (2.6.1p2-7.el6) to do bsdtcp auth to the new clients. I'll report back.

leaving NEEDINFO on me for now

Comment 5 Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2012-04-11 06:28:12 UTC
Thomas,
apologies, I will not get to decently test this before F17 (not enough spare cycles) and with the new and improved firewalld in 17, we might as well close this bug as no longer relevant.
Sorry about thenoise
