That would have been my guess too.  However, the two machines are a production email server and a dns server that have been up and running for months.  The fact that the client gets the connection and the initial request would mean that they have some capacity to talk.  I can also nmap all of the services on the other side from both the server and the client, so all of the ports that should be open are, and I can connect to them from the other machine.  I'm stumped, unless someone has some new advice, I guess I'll move on.

Thanks,
Greg

Offhand I think networking.  ping the other from each, both client and server.  Check that all interfaces are up with proper netmasks, addresses, default routes and gateways.  The usual suspect when there is no firewalling or router ACLs, VPN or NAT between client and server is permissions but that's not what I saw in the logs.  Its like they can't even see each other.  If you can ping from client to server and server to client I will be mystified but I suspect you will find you can't.

The server side gets a timeout.  They are on the same IP subnet, so I don't think a firewall would come into play here.  Both boxes are redhat 9 boxes with no system firewalling.  If there's any other information that would help, let me know.

thanks,

Greetings,

I'm sure that people on the list are tired of amcheck questions, but
I've searched everywhere I could think of and haven't been able to
find a similar problem.  I don't get anything useful from the server
side, 
    
What are you getting on the server side, a timeout?

but here's what I get from the client amandad logs:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    
Any chance there's a firewall in betwen (or tcpwrappers or
something similar on one or both boxes)?

Thanks,
Greg
