Hi Kip!

Hmmm, I thought amanda is using a localhost connection? But you're right. If I 
test connections using the 'discard' or 'echo' service with the IP address of 
my lan interface, I get this terrible throughput, too. Using the localhost 
address the throughput is *much* better!

Thanks,
Christian.
