I have not been able to get a backup of one of my amanda clients for 3 days. The only errors I can find is in the amandad.20031104013547000.debug, which are:
You left out the "noop" request just before, I believe.

I've searched the FAQ which suggested that I increase the ctimeout value
in the amanda.conf file. I increased the value from 30 to 120 on the
Amanda server, but it's still timing out.
This is just a symptom that the the computer never received an ack packet. Something in the netwrok setup? (is the computer replying to the correct server? multiple Network card? Firewall blocking? etc. etc.) Increasing the ctimeout will not help.
