That's what my system looks like, too. To make my day and contradict
Alexandre :-), lsof does not appear to report UDP ports as being in
LISTEN state. So this looks OK.

OK, here's the next idea. Instead of running a script, run truss directly
by changing the inetd.conf line to this:
amanda dgram udp wait backup /bin/truss amandad -fo
/tmp/amandad.truss /opt/amanda/libexec/amandad
(adust as needed for paths and user name). This will dump the truss
output in /tmp/amandad.truss.
