The .amandahosts file that is used during backing up is the one
located in the client�s amanda�s home directory. That means that the other
two clients were working fine, because their .amandahosts files were OK.
You will need the entries for each client in the server�s .amandahosts
file, allowing root to access the server, when you try to recover, not
before.
