OK, the story continues, thanks to all those who've contributed so
far!!  Here's how things are now after all your comments.  The client is
a new install of 2.5, server is 2.4.4p3

-rw-------   1 amandabackup disk  109 Apr 25 14:23 .amandahosts

/, /var, /lib, /var/lib/amanda are all readable.

xinetd.d/amanda:

=========
service amanda
{
       socket_type             = dgram
       protocol                = udp
       wait                    = yes
       user                    = amandabackup
       group                   = disk
       groups                  = yes
       server                  = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad
       disable                 = no
       only_from               = 10.10.1.8 192.168.0.1
}
=========

but still I get this from amcheck:

ERROR: NAK murray.deanst.rroom.net: access as amandabackup not allowed
from [EMAIL PROTECTED]: cannot open /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts:
Permission denied

Any more suggestions? - thanks

Was xinetd restarted after editing that file?
What if you remove the "only_from"-line for a test (and restart xinetd)?

Here it looks like

# ls -la ~amanda/.amandahosts
-rw-------  1 amanda root 190 Jun 27  2005 /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts

Oh yea, restarting xinetd, probably a good idea!  Output from amcheck now:

WARNING: murray.deanst.rroom.net: selfcheck request timed out.  Host down?
