Amanda group, I recently purchased the new Quantum LTO-3 library. I also purchased a server that unfortunately works initially with Debian's Testing installation which defaults to 2.5.0p2 of Amanda-server/client. I can communicate with the 20 amanda-clients on 2.4.4 with the amanda-server

Just to ask, are you using dump? If you are, was dump installed when compiled in Amanda on that client pc. Is the amandahosts file owned by amanda? and sometimes, hosts.allow tends to be a problem with certain installations, becuase they rely on hosts to delegate which ports are open to hosts.
