You **must** use the no-rewind device name for **all** Amanda work.
That's probably /dev/nst0.

Did you run amlabel to label the tape?

On the client?  In the home directory of the first <user> listed in
the message?  What did you put in it?  It must contain:

  hostname   user

where "hostname" is **exactly** as listed in the mssage and "user" is
the second <user> listed in the message.

What version of Amanda are you using?
