Yikes.

After you send inetd a HUP (and wait a minute), is there anything of
interest in /var/adm/messages?

Do you actually have a user "amanda" (or whatever) defined?  Is it local
(/etc/passwd) or are you one of those silly NIS people?  :-)

If none of this helps, the next thing I'd try is starting a truss on
inetd itself and making a connection that does not work, then look at
that output.
