Amanda and the firewall

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am having a little hair pulling trouble setting up the firewall for Amanda backups.

I am attempting to use my Amanda server to backup a client which has the firewall installed, so far without much luck.

If anyone has got this to work or can advise me on what rules are needed I would be truly grateful.

I know so far that amanda will send a backup request on port 10080, this rule I've got.

Then the client will send back on a random udp port, this should be ok as I don't block any outbound traffic.

But now amanda returns to the client with three random tcp port connections, this is where I fail I think - someone suggested using connection tracking, but I don't really know enough about this.

Thanks,

Neil.
