Hello folks,

I'm finally upgrading from the Amanda v2.4.x series to v2.5.2p1. My configuration worked fine with the old v2.4.x series... However, I'm having some strangeness with the new version... in particular with clients that have a primary and secondary ipaddr on the same interface (eth0). Here's an example:

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,10000> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100
   link/ether 00:04:23:e0:65:46 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
   inet 192.168.1.23/26 brd 192.168.1.63 scope global eth0
   inet 192.168.1.25/26 brd 192.168.1.63 scope global secondary eth0
   inet6 fe80::204:23ff:fee0:6546/64 scope link
      valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

When I do an "amcheck" on the primary addr (192.168.1.23) , all is fine... However, if I do it with the secondary addr (192.168.1.25), I get this message:

WARNING: secon-ip: selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK

Where, secon-ip is 192.168.1.25. I did a "tcpdump -A -v -v udp port 10080" and it confirms that the Amanda server is sending a request from the secondary address, but getting an answer from the primary address... and it doesn't seem to like it:

#### clip ###

#### clip further down ###

#### end clip  ###

I'd really like to get this to work... I use the secondary address in a dual-node cluster with Heartbeat-DRBD configuration. The secondary address is used for failover.

Thanks in advance for your help.
