In an attempt to work around some network problems, I've added a 2nd NIC to my Amanda server, that should provide a better route to some of the clients. On those clients amcheck is not working.
I added the IP address of the 2nd NIC to the .amandahosts file on the clients, but that does not seem to be working. I don't have a DNS entry for this address, and I'm wondering if that could be the problem. Using ethereal, I see 3 packets coming to the client from the server, and none going back. Looking in the debug directory, I see that amandad starts, and gives the build info, but then just has an exit timestamp. Any suggestions? -- I'm sorry, no one here has any intentions of helping you with anything. I am the manager of all of Customer Service."
