"nothing" as in the directory was not re-created, or "nothing" as in
it was created but no files were in it?

Then inetd is not running amandad for some reason.
I know you did the "netstat" thing before, but maybe you should do it
again? And take a look at the system log files to see if it's whining
about anything.
Are you sure the "amanda" service is registered properly (in particular,
the same port number) on both server and client? There's a little test
program at:
ftp://gandalf.cc.purdue.edu/pub/amanda/getservbyname.c
If none of **that** gets you anywhere :-), try running truss against
inetd while you run amcheck:
truss -f -w 2 -p <inetd-pid>
>Running the script manually in /tmp works fine.
Good. Go ahead and blow away /tmp/amanda again, just so we're starting
at a clean point each time.
