They did not.  However I've found what seems to have been part of the
problem: the upgrade process changed /etc/amandahosts to root:root when
it has to be backup:backup.

Do /var/log/amanda/client//selfcheck.2019*.debug files get
created on the client get created when you run amcheck?

An oldie but a classic, only appeared when I updated this particular
Debian client machine's amanda-common and amanda-client to buster from
stretch. (3.5.1-2+b2)

The server, which is also its own client, is fully on buster.  No
problems with it

I've checked the usual suspects in /etc/hosts.allow and inetd.  None of
that has changed for years though.  And the directory permissions for
the home directory appear to still be correct:

|    backup:x:34:34:backup:/var/backups:/usr/sbin/nologin|

Oh, I am using bsdtcp.

Anybody have a suggestion of where I should look first?

Thanks
