Then xinetd is not set up right (which has been a real PITA recently)
and it is not listening on the Amanda port, which means nothing is going
to work.
You did HUP xinetd, didn't you? Is xinetd logging anything?
Here's an xinetd.d file from Joshua E Warchol <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> that
is typical of those reported to work;
service amanda
{
protocol = udp
socket_type = dgram
wait = yes
user = amanda # whatever --with-user was
group = amanda # whatever --with-group was
groups = yes
server = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
server_args = amandad
}

You're not even getting that far. You need to figure out the xinetd
problem first.
