Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: server.slsware.dmz: [addr 192.168.20.237: hostname lookup failed]
ERROR: log.slsware.dmz: [addr 192.168.20.237: hostname lookup failed]
Client check: 5 hosts checked in 10.049 seconds, 2 problems found


If the lookups failed, where did the IPs come from? They are indeed
wrong, but the 192.168.20 part is right. There is nothing at 237. It's
in the middle of a DHCP pool the PIX firewall uses when the lan wants to
talk to the dmz.

host server.slsware.dmz gives 192.168.20.218
host log.slsware.dmz gives 192.168.20.30 

Both are right. The IPs are right in /etc/hosts, too. I ssh to them all
the time. And the DNS server is on the same network as the amanda
server. The 3 hosts that did not have problems are also on the lan. It's
gotta be a pix problem, but I don't understand how amanda could be
coming up with that IP. Where does amanda go to do its DNS?
