Are you talking about the /etc/xinetd.d/amanda file? in my case it is amandabackup.

Hey All,

I have amanda version 2.5.0p2 I have installed version 2.5.0p2-4 for the amanda client. I have added the amanda server and the amanda user in the .amandahost file on the client I checked the /etc/services and all the amanda ports are there. But when I try to do an amcheck tape this is what I get. It's been awhile since I have added a client, am I missing something?

WARNING: ifx-se-02.transolutions.net: selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK
Client check: 1 host checked in 30.036 seconds, 1 problem found

Hello,
It sound like you are trying to use "bsd" authentication to connect to a client that is using "bsdtcp". You either need to upgrade to the 2.5.1 server or change the client to run "bsd". These changes need to be made in the xientd service for amanda.
Thank You

Hello,
I think I made a mistake in my last post. I thought you were using 2.5.0 server and 2.5.1 client, but you are not, so I dont think bsd and bsdtcp conflict is the problem. Please post the contents of /etc/xientd.d/amandabackup on the client. Also run "netstat -a | grep amanda" on the client and post the output.
Thank You
