Also I do see with a netstat -an the following line udp4 0 0 *.10080 *.*
After installing the xinetd I got that far, client still times out. I am running the amcheck -c DailySet1 from the server to test this BTW. No firewall is on this box or on the server and its on the same network through a switch so nothing should be blocking the traffic. It just appears the amandad client is not running on the client server, if I do ps -aux I do not see the amandad in the list.
