Help PLEASE, Can't rlogin to myslef!



I'm trying to get a Debian stable box set up to be a Amanda tapehiots.

It's _almost_ working. The only serious remaining problem is that it can't
see it self! This can be exhibited by atempteing to rlogi8n or rsh from
itself to itself. if I try to rlogin, I get:

debuan.xxx.com: Invalid argument

If I try to rsh, I get:

Rhe same thing.

The amanda debug file says:

send req failed: invalid argument

The machine is a potato machine, with the Progeny upgrades, and the 2.4.9
kernel.

It's name is in /etc/hosts both as the simple, and FQDN formates. It;s
resovable in the DNS, bith foward, and reverse. I tride changing
/etc/nsswitch.conf so that it checks dns before the local files.

No change in the failuer. 

What;s _reallY- wierd, is I have a similarly setup machine at home, and it
works fine!

Sugetstions, Testing methodlogyies?

Helo, PLEASE!
