Unix Linux

Trying a "test" of amrecover.

using the command:
amrecover -C /Inside/ -s backup.xxxxx.net -t backup.xxxxx.net -d /dev/nst0

I am getting:

amrecover: Unexpected server end of file

Ok, that's fine, I think it's because I am not running a DNS server inside 
the firewall and the 10.0.0.x IP's are not returning a proper reverse 
lookup. I can handle that, or if you have a particular suggestion go ahead 
and shoot. BTW: the box is listed in /etc/hosts

Anyway, the *other* problem, when the error above is given, the very next 
time I try amrecover, I get this:

amrecover: Error connecting to server: Connection refused

I check the backup box for amandaid to be running, as it was before the 
trial amrecover and it's missing from a netstat -ap

Any known reason for amandaid to crash because of the bad DNS problem?
