Made some adjustments on ducati to autostart vsftpd:

# chkconfig vsftpd on

Despite my good intentions, it seems as though amanda can’t write to tty8 because of permissions problems. Similar to my earlier investigations into amanda’s problems access the tape drives, I need to dig into udev. See the new section on udev.

WORKAROUND: Run the command as root. Here is my root crontab:

Screen clipping taken: 28/07/2006, 14:17

# During the week, log warning to IML/IMD if proper tape is not loaded
0 16 * * 1,2,3,4,5 /usr/local/sbin/amandaiml CCH1
# Echo to the console which tape is required
0 7 * * * date >/dev/tty8;su amanda -c “/usr/sbin/amadmin CCH1 tape” >/dev/tty8
