Could you point me to PORTS.USAGE? I have just found the docs at
http://www.backupcentral.com/amanda.html and I haven't read them yet,
only the man pages and I don't recall PORTS.USAGE.

Also there is a firewall between the server and client, however it is
setup the same for 6 other servers in the DMZ and none of these servers
are having any trouble. I will double check the firewall. However
wouldn't amcheck fail if this is a firewall issue?

TIA.

Sounds like a firewall between the machines. I would check on that, and
read
PORTS.USAGE in the amanda docs.
