But i'm getting a slightly strange error with a large partition. The partition in question is around 900gig in size although only a few hundred meg are currently used. When the estimate runs it returns

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
 planner: ERROR Estimate timeout from "servername"

Thing is though the actual dump of this filesystem runs fine - I have increased my eTimeout to 20mins but this still occurs - Any ideas on this one?

Look in /tmp/amanda/sendsize*debug and/or amandad*debug to see how long the estimate is actually taking. Also, what do your iptables rules look like on the server?
