I can tell you what Amanda is doing, but not why your system is reporting
this error to Amanda.
Amanda has created a socket and then done a sendto() to ship a UDP packet
from your server to one of the clients, presumably "dexter". That call
reported back "Connection refused", which Amanda retried several times
but eventually gave up on.
I've added a whole lot more debugging messages in the network code.
Is there any chance I could convince you to get the latest 2.4.2 CVS
sources and at least build them (you would not need to actually install)?
You could "chown root" and "chmod u+s" that version of amcheck and run it
from the build area (make sure you use the binary, not the funny shared
library wrapper script of the same name, but use the wrapper script to
run it, or you can build with --disable-shared to turn all this off just
for testing), then look at /tmp/amanda/amcheck*debug to see what it did.
>BTW: The isn't a new one and nothing changed in the environment.
Yeah, right. How often have I heard that story. :-)
Clearly something related to "dexter" has changed that is causing packets
to not be able to be delivered (in fact, they are being explicitly
refused). I'd start checking that client to make sure inetd is happy
and listening to the Amanda port, that there are no firewall problems,
that the name <-> IP mapping is right from the server, and so on.
