The amanda server is "mybox", trying to back up the client

even though /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts contains "mybox amanda" and
"jayhawker amanda" on both the client and the server just to be sure.
Have you verified the permissions of .amandahosts?
It should be owned by amanda and have access bits 0400 or 0600.
On jayhawker, each time I run amcheck I see something this in
/var/log/secure
May 27 09:44:26 jayhawker xinetd[28751]: START: amanda pid=22417
from=192.168.2.101
So, it is receiving a connection. Then it is no firewall issue.
