I was mistaken.  You can telnet to 10082, but it's not going to be able
to do much.  However, I don't know why it would have said this right away:

  amindexd: could not open conf file "amanda.conf": No such file or directory

Did you type anything to telnet before it reported this?

If that's all there was, then it died right away for some reason.

Try running amindexd by hand as root and see what that has to say.
If it just sits there, enter "QUIT".

I don't know.  You didn't provide enough information.

I suspect amreport is failing, but wouldn't have any idea why.

Again, you didn't provide enough information.  Why do you think none
of the dumps finished correctly?

That depends on how you built Amanda.  It needs to go in the directory
you gave ./configure with --with-configdir.  If you didn't specify that
parameter, it defaults to $sysconfdir/amanda where $sysconfdir comes from
--with-sysconfdir and defaults to $prefix/etc which comes from --prefix
and defaults to /usr/local.

They need to allow access from the Amanda user.
