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:

amandad: debug 1 pid 1883 ruid 34 euid 34: start at Tue Apr 18 12:54:51
2006
amandad: version 2.5.0

[...]

amandad:        COMPRESS_BEST_OPT="--best" UNCOMPRESS_OPT="-dc"
amandad: time 29.972: pid 1883 finish time Tue Apr 18 12:55:21 2006

Are you 100% sure you have "wait" in inetd.conf (the symptoms are
the same if you have "nowait" there).
