Hi,

I have successfully installed and configured Amanda, and amcheck runs
successfully, as does amdump.

However, amrecover (running as root) fails, with the message 
"cannot connect to tony-lx.magpieway.net: connection refused"

.amandahosts contains tony-lx.magpieway.net, which is the localhost, as well
as the tape server, which user amanda can happily access to do the backups.

Evidently this is a permissions problem with root, but can anyone point me
in the right direction to fix it? Runnig Mandrake 9.1.

Cheers, Tony
