Is the error report reporting the FQDN or a shorter name. Try putting the name it is reporting in the .amandahosts.

Hi folks
 
I've been trying to get Amanda to be able to query the one backup client host that I have with no luck. I've been thru all the tech pages with no progress yet.
 
Am I missing something?
 
My .amandahosts file has the FQDN and I've only got one line specified for the client as a test in the disklist file.
 
I've checked inetd.conf and /etc/services according to advice and they seem fine:
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
Thanks
 
Shabs
