^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
and this is your problem:
your backupserver can not reverse-lookup your client.
it took the ip-adress and asked your nameserver for the name of your
client host and got a bad answer back.
Fix the reverse-mapping of your client ip-adress and amrecover will
be much happier.
