I'm trying to recover an E450 using ufsrestore and the tape drive on
another server, an E250, both Solaris 8 revision 10/00 with recent patches.
The backups were done using ufsdump over the same path I'm trying to use
for recover.
The difference is that I'm trying to restore when I am booted single
user from the cdrom. It's the software 1 CD for Solaris 8 (happens to be
revision 2/02 if that makes any difference).
boot cdrom -s
# ifconfig hme0 134.23.168.215 netmask 255.255.255.0 \
gateway 134.23.168.254 up
# ping 134.23.168.133
134.23.168.133 is alive
# newfs c0t0d0s0
# mount c0t0d0s0 /a
# cd /a
# ufsrestore rvf 134.23.168.133:/dev/rmt/0n
permission denied
(I'm recalling that from memory here at home, so please excuse if
"gateway" is wrong. It did work. I've also made up IP addresses.)
anyway, on the other server, I have tcp_wrappers on in.rshd in
/etc/inetd.conf, and, in /etc/hosts.allow, I have in.rshd: 134.23.168.215
I went to /etc/default/login and commented out the line CONSOLE=
I did a kill -HUP on inetd for good measure
I tried adding an /etc/hosts.equiv, but then found documentation that
coming in from root ignores that. So I added a /.rhosts with
134.23.168.215 +
Can't seem to find any combination that will allow me to access the
remote tape drive to do the restore. It has to be something weird about
booting from cdrom. From the remote machine I can do both an nslookup on
the name of the machine I'm trying to recover and ping it.
Any ideas what stupid thing I'm missing?
TIA
