Lurking?  You call my 5,000 replies to this list a day lurking???  :-) :-)

This is described in the doc I quoted in the other letter, but in brief,
Amanda only uses UDP to contact the client and make a request (e.g.
sendsize, selfcheck, sendbackup).  "Small" answers (everything but
sendbackup) come back as UDP as well.  But the real data motion (e.g.
the actual backup image) you pointed out from your log file is done via
TCP (the names stream_server and stream_accept imply a "stream", a.k.a.
TCP, connection).
