We began using NAT addresses on our network a few months ago, but at first
we kept all of our systems that were backed up by amanda outside the NAT
range.  As time moved on we started bringing some of them inside, and it
seemed that the easiest way to get both the inside (translated) and
outside (nontranslated) addresses would be to build an amanda server and
place it inside.  After building a system with FreeBSD 4.5 and amanda, we
found that it was able to connect to the machines outside, but none of the
machines inside, including itself.  Is there something we missed?  We
enabled the "operator" accounts on all the systems, we used inetd to start
amanadad as operator on all the systems, and added the UDP and the two TCP
ports into /etc/services.  But yet we still cannot get the new amanda
server to get anything inside, including itself.  When we run amcheck it
reports all the systems inside to be "host down?".  Any ideas would be
much appreciated.
