Hi everyone,

I have installed amanda. amchack works fine as well as amdump. When I
try to restore using amrecover I get :

AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1p2. Contacting server on kinshasa ...
[request failed: timeout waiting for ACK]

In the logs on the client
(/tmp/amanda/client/amrecover.xxxxxxxxxxxx.debug) I have :

amrecover: debug 1 pid 18695 ruid 0 euid 0: start at Wed Jan 24 16:43:46

security_seterror(handle=42cb8, driver=ff3319b8 (BSD) error=timeout
waiting for ACK)
security_close(handle=42cb8, driver=ff3319b8 (BSD))

Obviously the client tries to contact the server on port 10080,
shouldn't it try to reach the server on port 10082? How can I change
that?

In ~/.amandahosts on the client I have :

<server fqdn> <amanda user on the server> amdump

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
