90 seconds, it's not a dtimeout issue.
Post all debug files for the run.
You can also try the bsdtcp auth, it is more firewall friendly.
I just tried following the instructions here:
http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/How_To:Configure_bsd,_bsdtcp,_or_bsdudp_authentication
I've added a single new dle config for this host:
define dumptype problemserver-nocomp-root-tar {
nocomp-root-tar
comment "Root partitions with compression"
compress none
auth "bsdtcp"
}
and a single change to the disklist file to refer to this config entry for
just that one single host.
When I 'su - backup' and run 'amcheck -c' I get errors such as:
ERROR: NAK <an amanda client>: user root from <the amanda server> is not
allowed to execute the service noop: Please add "amdump" to the line in
/var/backups/.amandahosts on the client
for *every* amanda client in the list.
It seems rather odd that this change for a single dle would introduce this
error for every other dle? Its as if something has leaked out.
I made no changes to any other configuration yet, just the change to the
amanda server modifying a dle for a single client.
I expected that it might fail for that client, but not for all of them...
(I'll get to posting the debug logs soon).

Please remember that an email is just like a postcard; it is not
confidential nor private nor secure and can be read by many other people
than the intended recipient. A postcard can be read by anyone at the mail
sorting office and expecting what is written on it to be private and secret
is not realistic. Please hold no higher expectation of email.
If you need to send confidential information in an email you need to use
encryption. PGP is Pretty good for this.
