    this is not my case as far as i can see, i have no iptables rules at
    all and no firewall in the middle to block.<br>
    i tried to increase limitation of xinet.d and this does not change a
    thing.<br>
    <br>
    anyone else can think of something? anything? i will try all...<br>

                  One problem I had early on, &nbsp;which you might be
                  having:
                  <div>When amanda starts a backup, &nbsp;the connection is
                    held open for XX amount of time.</div>
                  <div>The client can reply back on that same connection
                    ..... unless it takes longer than that</div>
                  <div>to collect its data and get started. &nbsp; That could
                    change as the data increases in size.</div>
                  <div>If the initial connection is no longer open, &nbsp;the
                    client has to start a NEW connection</div>
                  <div>back to the server.</div>
                  <div>&nbsp;&nbsp;On my machines, that required a different level
                    of privilege than using a connection</div>
                  <div>that the server had started. &nbsp;My client didn't
                    have connection to initiate a connection.</div>
                  <div>Took us a while to find and fix that....</div>

                          Amanda version 2.6.1p1<br>
                          <br>
                          this server has worked perfectly for more then
                          a year.<br>
                          now, i get ACK error all the times, mostly on
                          random servers/workstations, however it is
                          consistence in self error, meaning the server
                          itself gets ACK error on itself all the time.<br>
                          nothing has been changed as far as i know (the
                          main configuration was not changed) as i did
                          not change anything until the error started to
                          show up.<br>
                          then i followed the guide here:<br>
                          <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                            \
href="http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Selfcheck_request_failed">http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Selfcheck_request_failed</a><br>
  and tried everything ther (i only use bsdtcp
                          amservice returns ok on all of them,checked
                          firewalls and xinetd configuration, tried
                          upgrading the clients on windows machines and
                          even started to use the hosts file) but
                          nothing works.<br>
                          <br>
                          as i understand from the guide since amservice
                          checks out ok, this is a server issue, but i
                          could find none.<br>
                          <br>
                          i also tried increasing etimeout, dtimeout and
                          ctimeout.<br>
                          i even tried weird stuff i found like network
                          settings:<br>
                          /sbin/ifconfig eth0 txqueuelen 10000<br>
                          /bin/echo 180 &gt;
                          /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time<br>
                          and eventually i even started to replace all
                          my backbone switches to check if this is my
                          network issue (highly unlikley as it fails on
                          itself too, but i am running out of options).<br>
                          <br>
                          anyone knows what else to check? please do not
                          advise an upgrade as i currently does not have
                          a backup for my backup server and not in a
                          time for buying new hardware or even have much
                          time for tests to see what will break if i
                          upgrade.<br>
