Hi,

I have setup amanda and a test client for it, my problem is that I get:
WARNING: work: selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK
when runing amcheck.

It works fine if I use the client on localhost but not with a client on
another machine.

I've looked at the trafic with tcpdump: the server send packges but the
client never reply's.

I've read the mailing list and googled a bit but nothing I found solved my
problem.

Did anyone had this problem? Help, please...

Best regards,

Luis

PS: amandad is started with inetd because it saves the following log:
