Thanks for the replies

You know what the problem actually was?

On Redhat 7.2 built and installed from source RPM.

.amandhosts file is NOT in /home/amanda !

It is in /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts

cp /home/amanda/.amandahosts /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts

Fixed it. This may be documented somewhere but I couldn't find it.

anyway,  thanks again 

Kevin
