It was working for several days, then all of a sudden it stopped and hasn't worked since.

First thing to ask is: what did change since then?
Installed something?  Reconfigured something?  Rebooted system?

amandad: time 447.906: sending REP packet:

It took less than 550 seconds to estimate all of it.

planner: time 10801.886: error result for host marge disk /: Estimate

and server timed out after 3 DLE's * 2 lvls * 1800 sec = 10800 seconds

It looks like homer was waiting a suffcient time for marge to reply, but the reply was dropped.

Yes, indeed.

Marge and homer are on the same switch.

Are there other clients besides marge?
Is there a local firewall activated on homer?

Try to find out where the UDP packet got dropped, using tcpdump or etherreal or other network analyzer on homer and marge.
