Hi got a bit further I had on the emailserver SuSE's default firewall
running thus disabled
Now get this error:
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: ktinga.smtl.co.uk: [access as amanda not allowed from
amanda AT nemesis.smtl.co DOT uk] amandahostsauth failed
Client check: 2 hosts checked in 10.190 seconds, 1 problem found
Thus I have add to the my new host
emailserver's /var/lib/amanda/.amandahostss file the main Amanada server
(myserver).
myserver amanda
myserver root
And guess what No problems!.
Cheers
