The problem is the forward lookup rather than the reverse DNS.  If you give
2 different IP addresses to the same hostname BIND will round-robin the 2
addresses - returning the first address on one query and the second on the
next.

I think the simplest way to solve this is to go ahead and change the IP
address of the client to the new IP address since it doesn't appear that
Amanda has a switch to force the source address.  I have to break down and
do it one of these days anyway :-)
