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.

Does anything get created in /tmp/amanda on the 64 bit client? If so, let's see it. If not, have you fired up tcpdump and/or wireshark to see what's happening to the amanda traffic?

I've got 32 bit servers backing up 64 bit clients (and vice versa), so this can work.
