I don't have that file...I have a file /etc/xinetd.d/amanda that looks like
this...
service amanda
{
    protocol            = udp
    socket_type         = dgram
    wait                = yes
    user                = amanda
    group               = disk
    groups              = yes
    server              = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
}

service amandaidx
{
    protocol            = tcp
    socket_type         = stream
    wait                = yes
    user                = amanda
    group               = disk
    groups              = yes
    server              = /usr/local/libexec/amindexd
}

service amidxtape
{
    protocol            = tcp
    socket_type         = stream
    wait                = no
    user                = amanda
    group               = disk
    groups              = yes
    server              = /usr/local/libexec/amidxtaped

I get the same error when I try to run amrecover on the amanda server, as
well, so it's not a remote issue.

I currently don't have anything in /etc/hosts.allow, but I never have, and
I've run amrecover before. (?) What do I need to add, just a line that says
amindexd?
