Gene,
Don't know if this is your first networked machine, but in case your
just getting started with xinetd, bear in mind that by default, the old
inetd configuration used to have all services enabled. Xinetd, on the
other hand, comes standard with all services 'disabled'. So, check the
contents of your /etc/xinetd.d/ directory, and change all of the amanda
related files so that they have 'disable' set to 'no'.
Good luck.
Jeff.
