2.4.4 backing up to disk
Debian Linux with amanda compiled from source

Amanda Server and client machines back up appropriately when amdump run
from command line.
        Bind runs on an amanda client (internet gateway machine) and
        obviously resolves server and client names appropriately.

All machines EXCEPT amanda server back up appropriately running amdump
from cron daemon

Amanda server running from within cron daemon fails with host name resolve
failure

 Pointers please!  Thanks
