my xinetd.conf looks like this:

service amanda
{
        socket_type     = dgram
        protocol        = udp
        wait            = yes
        user            = backup
        server          = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad
       bind            = 192.168.11.1
}

service amandaidx
{
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = backup
        server          = /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd
       bind            = 192.168.11.1

}

service amidxtape
{
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/lib/amanda/amidxtaped
       bind            = 192.168.11.1
}

amcheck reports this (which is logical I think since ther's no way 
accessing amanda via 127.0.0.1):

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check

/tmp/amanda/amcheck.debug gives:

somehow I don't wanna give amanda access to all interfaces since my 
amanda server is a gateway (the less interface it is listening on, the 
more it is I think)
Is there a way to tell amanda to listent to only specific interfaces 
(eth1 and loclhost for example?)

Regards.
