I've been using amanda fairly successfully with a 9-tape LTO

now moving on to using it to backup linux clients, and I've
hit a problem. I'm using amanda-2.4.3-4 on RH 9.0 (the distro
release), and running
amcheck -c DailyBacup clienthost
starts a dialogue between the server & clienthost, but it doesn't
complete. Here's the log from the client:
[root@clienthost amanda]# more amandad.20031212141601.debug

As you can see, the server starts the communication OK, the
client replies, then the client doesn't recognise the next
server packet as an ack. I can go digging in the source, or
try the Rawhide 2.4.4 version, but maybe there's something
I'm missing. I've had a look through the archives, and I
can't see an answer to this. Anybody?
It is not an ack, but the client receives the "noop" packet again.
This means that the server never got an "ack" from its first request.
Is there a firewall in between? Do you have multiple interfaces
on that computer (may the reply got sent using the other interface,
and not recognized by the server). etc. etc.
