Can you telnet to each of thes ports?

$ telent <target> amandaix (use 'quit' to exit)
$ telnet <target> amidxtape ('quit' or CR to exit)

If not, reload xinetd and check the messages file for any errors.
Also make sure that ipchains or iptables is not filtering the port.

- I don't have that file...I have a file /etc/xinetd.d/amanda that looks like

- I get the same error when I try to run amrecover on the amanda server, as
- well, so it's not a remote issue.

- >You'll also need to make sure that the service is allowed in

- >(it's amindexd) on slaw from ants.
-
- I currently don't have anything in /etc/hosts.allow, but I never have, and
- I've run amrecover before. (?) What do I need to add, just a line that says
- amindexd?
