Make sure you rebuild both client and server, since the server is the one
that initiates the connection to the client. Its choice of ports must match
the ones that the client expects to see.
In general, I have found that I must make sure that both ends of an Amanda
connection are configured consistently to have successful connections.
You might want to set up a separate test configuration that uses the version
of Amanda with the port range options set. This will allow you to verify
that the selected port ranges work for your firewall/server/client
combination without affecting your other servers (which are sill working
correctly). Once your experimentation is complete, then you can merge the
two configurations.
Another avenue of exploration:
Check to see that your firewall has all seven servers in the same rule set
(it sounds to me like the last server is being treated differently, possibly
because it is on a different subnet, belongs to a different department, is
in a different risk class, etc.). If the rules are different for the
seventh server, then a simple rule modification on the firewall to permit
Amanda connections may resolve the entire issue without rebuilding Amanda.
Hopefully one or more of these suggestions helps.

Subject: RE: What ports does Amanda use?
Should I be using
./configure --with-tcpportrange=50000,50040 --with-udpportrange=890,899
on the client, server or both?
I am still confused why 6 out of 7 servers in my DMZ (behind a firewall)
work as-is, it is just one server that is giving me a headache. I know
it is a firewall related issue cause if I turn off the firewall the
Amanda dump works fine on all 7 servers, but with it on one server fails
to connect. I am rebuilding the client first with the --with-tcp* and
--wint-udp* options to see if this works.
My Amanda server in on my private LAN connecting in to the DMZ.

Read docs/PORT.USAGE. It's udp 10080 and any unpriviledged tcp ports
(well, 3 at a time).
