Did you:
install the client software on the new client
move the .amandahosts file to the new client
verify that the client can resolve the Amanda server's IP
add the necessary entries to /etc/services and inetd.conf (or xinetd)
check the system logs on the client for errors from (x)inetd
look in the debug files in /tmp/amanda on the new client
check connectivity (ping the client from the Amanda server,
  telnet to the amandad port on the client from the Amanda server)
