The server on the other side of my firewall is timming out agian.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
  server / lev 0 FAILED [server.my.co.ukNAK :  amandad busy]
  tapeserver.sm /var lev 0 STRANGE


Thus this was working fine but for some unknown reason the timeout has
exceeded 300 seconds Here is my log using  less
command /tmp/amanda/amandad.20060316205008000.debug file


amandad: time 600.049: received other packet, NAKing it

Thus I assume that I need to amend my IPCHAIN rule from ipchains -M -S
7200 10 300 to 
ipchains -M -S 7200 10 800 

Cheers
