| Yes, after running amcheck you should see at least four files in
| /tmp/amanda: two from amandad, one from amcheck, and one from selfcheck.
|
| It sounds like this is indeed some problem with amandad not running on the
| 11.00 box. From the packets below, it doesn't look like amandad ever gets
| invoked.

Could this be a problem with
~  a) a firewall blocking access to (one of) the port(s)
        on Linux i would say iptables. I have no idea what
        the equivalent on HP-UX is...
~  b) tcp-wrappers not allowing access (even to localhost)
        (check /etc/hosts.* files)?
just a guess
