Sounds like you may still have the server's old IP address somewhere in your hosts file, or in DNS/NIS. See if 'nslookup servername' returns what you expect.

Hello, We change the IP address on our amanda server because we moved to a new building. Now, when we run "su amanda -c "amcheck daily" we continually get the 'selfcheck request timed out' error, but the server can still check the other hosts it backs up. No other changes were made to the server. It was up and running for several months before the move w/o any problems. Here's what I've verified: amanda can write to /var/tmp/amanda there are no firewalls in place according to lsof, all amanda services are still running I can ping the server from itself and from other clients on the network Restarting xinetd or rebooting does not correct the problem The server has entries for itself in /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts Any ideas? We're using version 2.4.2p2-7 on a RH 7.3 server (it was installed with RH's default rpms). Like I said earlier, it worked perfectly for several months before we moved to the new building and changed IPs, but that doesn't seem like it should cause this. Thanks
