Dear Peter:
Thanks for your reply.
I do not know what news server can I use.
I use yahoo groups(eGruops).However I can not post.
I have new trouble now. @.@

Do you know why?
Thanks.

Hi, Rex. Don't worry about Peter too much, he loves giving advice that is
correct but useless, then snarks at you for not automatically knowing
everything. I, however, wrote the SunOS port for Amanda many moons ago.

I assume that the Amanda configuration you are using is called "daily". I
assume you have a typo in line 70 of your disklist: perhaps you could post
it and we could glance at it?

Mailing lists use mailers, not news clients or servers (wellllll, apart
from being gatewayed often ...). So you need to read the amanda
documentation and mail to the mailing list mentioned. If that's hard
work, why not goggle for "amanda mailing list"?

That's something you can change in a moment.

Sounds good to me.

Yes - something is wrong.

Well, whatever the "changer" is (tape changer? You have a tape?
really?), it's returning garbage.

You seem to have failed to allow access to X from amanda@X. You need to
fix that.

Have you considered reading the documentation or talking to the mailing
list?

Groovy.
