I added a new client to amanda and it won't back up. I don't add clients often, but I think I got everything right. I have a feeling this is because the filesystem is zfs--my first--everything else I back up is ufs. I'm going to put a ufs filesystem on the client today and see if that backs
up tonight, just to make sure the client isn't really the problem.

I included all the relevant information in the hope that someone can spot something.
