Hi to all,
I have a problem with amanda.

In december i've set-up amanda to backup the same machine that have the tape 
drive.
Everything worked fine but today amcheck give me this error:

Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
NOTE: skipping tape-writable test
Tape bkimmob01 label ok
WARNING: tapecycle (20) <= runspercycle (20).
Server check took 0.275 seconds

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: auriga: [addr 172.30.2.195: hostname lookup failed]
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.007 seconds, 1 problem found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.4p4)

As you can see, the machine can resolve its hostname:

[root@auriga local]# ping auriga
PING auriga.manord.com (172.30.2.195) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 172.30.2.195: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.043 ms

--------------------------

[root@auriga local]# nslookup
> auriga
Server:         172.30.2.128
Address:        172.30.2.128#53

Name:   auriga.manord.com
Address: 172.30.2.195

--------------------------

i've tried to shutdown firewall, or restart xinetd, but nothing have changed.

any help would be appreciated,

Giovanni

p.s. sorry for bad english.
