Our NAT addresses are class C (192.168.0.xxx). The Amanda server resides at 192.168.0.18. It is unable to back itself up. We have a DNS server set up for the NAT addresses at 192.168.0.10 that is referred to in /etc/resolv.conf as the only DNS server for the Amanda server. However the Amanda server has no difficulties with the machines on the public IPs when it runs amcheck. We also tried to put the IP addresses of the internal machines into the disklist file, and it made no difference. Still the host timeout.
