Hi,

Are all services through xinetd are running on your client/server?

#  netstat -taun | egrep :1008.
tcp        0      0 192.168.29.2:10082      0.0.0.0:*       LISTEN
tcp        0      0 192.168.29.2:10083      0.0.0.0:*       LISTEN
udp        0      0 192.168.29.2:10080      0.0.0.0:*

Can you resolve the client/server name with FQDN? Setup in DNS or /etc/hosts. Try using ping to resolve.




IPTABLES is not running on this host, so it isn't a firewall issue,

Maybe some other security feature like selinux, AppArmor,...




This one has me stumped, as the error logs don't even make a peep that something in the system is even running, much less failing...

What is the content of your amcheck.*.debug logfile.

Marc
