Check the ReleaseNotes:
* The default auth is changed to "bsdtcp", if you are using the default bsd
then you must add it to your configuration.
o in amanda.conf
o in amanda-client.conf
o in dumptype/disklist
o in xinetd (if no '-auth' argument to amandad)
As you are still using BSD, you must update your dumptype to specify it.
Or better, fix your xinetd for bsdtcp.

Greetings;
Using my usual scripts to install Amanda 4.0.0alpha.svn.4048, which
does an amcheck as the final install check, from that script:

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check

WARNING: coyote: selfcheck request failed: Connection refused

Absolutely zip in the logs.

Client check: 2 hosts checked in 10.016 seconds. 2 problems found.

==========================
Reinstalling the slightly older version I ran last night, the amcheck
is fine:

Daily" Amanda Tape Server Host Check

Holding disk /usr/dumps: 435064832 kB disk space available, using
434552832 kB
Searching for label 'Dailys-17':found in slot 17: volume 'Dailys-17'

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 2 hosts checked in 2.363 seconds. 0 problems found.
(brought to you by Amanda 4.0.0alpha.svn.4026)
And the backup ran normally on 4026. I just took the printout from the
printer & stacked it with the rest of the printouts.
My configure script gh.cf:
===================
./configure --with-user=amanda \
--with-group=disk \
--with-owner=amanda \
--with-gnu-ld \
--prefix=/usr/local/ \
--with-debugging=/tmp/amanda-dbg/ \
--with-tape-server=coyote \
--with-bsdtcp-security --with-amandahosts \
--with-configdir=/usr/local/etc/amanda \
--with-gnutar=/bin/tar
======================
I did find the attached amcheck logfile in /tmp/amanda-dbg/server/Daily.
Its time roughly corresponds to the failed amcheck. It is the only file
that fell out of a "grep -R refused /tmp/amanda-dbg"
Thanks Jean-Louis
