Here's my working version:
service amanda
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = amanda
group = backup
groups = yes
server = /opt/libexec/amandad
}
service amandaidx
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = tcp
wait = yes
user = amanda
group = backup
groups = yes
server = /opt/libexec/amindexd
}
service amidxtape
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = tcp
wait = yes
user = amanda
group = backup
groups = yes
server = /opt/libexec/amidxtaped
}
Make sure you have the proper entries in /etc/services
