This sounds as if you either don't have the proper amanda related 
file(s) in your /etc/xinetd.d directory, or you didn't restart 
xinetd when you installed them.

The proper file should look like this:
----------------------------
# default = off
#
# description: Part of the Amanda server package
# This is the list of daemons & such it needs
service amanda
{
        disable = no
        socket_type     = dgram
        protocol        = udp
        wait            = yes
        user            = amanda
        group           = disk
        groups          = yes
        server          = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
}
service amandaidx
{
        disable = no
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = amanda
        group           = disk
        groups          = yes
        server          = /usr/local/libexec/amindexd
}
service amidxtape
{
        disable = no
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = amanda
        group           = disk
        groups          = yes
        server          = /usr/local/libexec/amidxtaped
}
-----------------------
adjust the group if required, everything else should correspond to a 
std amanda install.
