What does your inetd.conf look like? (amanda entries)

I'd verify the services and inetd.conf amanda entries.
netstat -an |grep 10080 - is it listening on your tape server?

Forgive me if I'm mistaken here, but I believe Amanda is part of the latest

Should be in /usr/ports/misc/amanda - Edit the Makefile to your liking and 'make
install'.
