Thanks for the heads up.  I couldn't find a example config file for 
chg-zd-mtx, is there one?

Here is how amanda.conf is set, does this look correct then?
runtapes 1              # number of tapes to be used in a single run of amdump
tpchanger "chg-zd-mtx"  # the tape-changer glue script
tapedev "/dev/nst0"     # the no-rewind tape device to be used
rawtapedev "/dev/null"  # the raw device to be used (ftape only)
#changerfile "/var/lib/amanda/DailySet1/changer"
#changerfile "/var/lib/amanda/DailySet1/changer-status"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/DailySet1/changer.conf"
changerdev "/dev/sg4"

I have mtx installed.  I can issue the following:
# /sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg4 inquiry
Product Type: Medium Changer
Vendor ID: 'ADIC    '
Product ID: 'FastStor DLT    '
Revision: 'D116'
Attached Changer: No

# /sbin/mtx -f /dev/sg4 status
