* It's called PORT.USAGE, my bad. I don't know where it would be on your system, but it is installed in the docs directory included with the amanda package. On my redhat system it is in /usr/share/doc/amanda-server-2.4.4p1. > Also there is a firewall between the server and client, however it is > setup the same for 6 other servers in the DMZ and none of these servers > are having any trouble.

The problem is when the data stream starts, it is on a port sent by the server, so unless the firewall examines the packets, it doesn't know to allow those through. If the others work and one doesn't, I would check for a firewall installed on the failing machine itself, and also double check that the client is compiled with the same --udp-portrange and --tcp-portrange as the working servers.
