I've poke around the list and didn't find this problem there. I have a RHEL 4 box with two dual core Xeon's and 16 Gig's of ram. Naturally it's running x86_64 of Red Hat. It has the stock RH version of amanda, amanda-2.4.4p3-1 and amanda-client-2.4.4p3-1. This is a client box.

The server is a 32bit box running the same versions (along with amanda-server-2.4.4p3-1).

I cannot get the 64 bit box to backup. When I run amcheck it' replies with selfcheck request time out. Tried turning off the firewall, but no help. I install my boxes the same way, a script puts the server info into /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts as well as putting the amanda file into xinetd.d. This works fine on all the 32 bit boxes, even ones configured after the 64 bit box.

This is the only 64 bit box I have, so I can't try another. I must be missing something basic, but I can see it.

Suggestions appreciated.

Thanks.

Ken
