Specifically, it says that the client tried to do an IP->host lookup
of 149.135.66.137 and that failed. Note that it's the client with the
problem, not the server, so concentrate your efforts there.
>but nslookup and ping both work fine to the host I am trying to get too.
As above, this is the wrong way around. You need to do those tests on
the client and see if you can get back to the server.
Note also that nslookup and ping are mostly irrelevant. They may or
may not do the same lookups as Amanda. See:
