Oh my gosh!!!

Version 2.4.1 ???   I think Methusula used that.


If problems continue you might consider looking at the packages
on blastwave.org.  Last I looked their x86 version was 2.4.4.
And they compile for Solaris 8 rather than Solaris 2.6.

In a later note you said .amandahosts contained the FQDN name
of the server (x.y.com bkup) while the error message gave
just the alias (bkup@x).  I don't know if it makes a difference,
but I always put into .amandahosts both versions.
