Are the amindexd and amidxtapes services installed in inetd.conf on
"fileserver"? What's in /tmp/amanda/amindexd*debug on "fileserver"?
You will probably have to provide some other parameters to amrecover, too.
Like the config name, the tape device name, etc. See the man page.

If it's critical you get this directory back and don't want to take
the time to get amrecover working, remember that you don't need it.
You can use amrestore and pipe the image back to the client where you
run the appropriate restore command by hand. See docs/RESTORE or the
"book chapter".
