My experience is with NetBSD rather than RH, but I've used 64-bit machines with no problems. One setup has a i386 server with multiple clients, including sparc64 and works with krb4 auth. Another has a sparc64 server and i386 and sparc clients. So it's pretty unlikely there are serious 64-bit bugs in the code. Of course you could be having lib/lib64 confusion. I'd run ldd on the amandad binary and see if it links ok.
