No, you don't have to update the amanda-security.conf file on the client
if you aren't upgrading the client's Amanda; I have many old clients
running against the server whch has 3.5 and didn't have to change any of
them that way....
I had in mind from the error messages you quoted that your upgrade
proceedure pushed the new version out to all your machines... but
knowing now that that is not the case, it sounds like what's going on
here is that amcheck prints the same error message once for each client
system it checks, but the actual error is just on the server side. (I'm
assuming here that "server" is where you are attempting to upgrade to
3.5.)
So, get the line fixed in the amanda-security.conf on that server
machine, and I think that one fix will resolve all the copies of the
error message....
