Rob Hoffman has given me permission to mirror his excellent Amanda set-up guides while his site (Frankenlinux.com) is down.
You can find them starting here: http://people.web.psi.ch/bearpark/mirror/frankenlinux.com/guides/amandaintro .html Having recently "enjoyed" the experience of setting up Amanda Backup server and clients on Linux and Solaris, these guides saved me a *lot* of grey hairs. Maybe they can help some people here too. I rescued them from the WayBackMachine (http://www.archive.org/) and I hope I got the latest versions. The guides refer to amanda-2.4.2p2 but I found them fine for my 2.4.3 installation. IMHO, amanda.org should adopt and update these guides or create something very much like them. Regards, Ralph.
