I just looked at the code and ran a couple of tests and don't see
a difference. According to the docs I have, .rhosts allows one (and
only one) optional username on each line:
hostname [username]
That's exactly what .amandahosts does as well. If you leave off the
username, it defaults to the Amanda user (the one it is running as from
inetd/xinetd).
So what was it in your .amandahosts file that didn't follow this pattern?
As I recall, it was just a list of host names without username fields.
Are you running a different user on the client and server?
