I installed Amanda on gentoo with "emerge amanda", and didn't compile it
manually. My question is how can I now specify a port range for Amanda to
use? Where should I tell Amanda to use that port range?

There were amanda.conf options for this ports since 2.5-something (i think 2.5.1, but im unsure), too.


If you need the portranges for firewall purposes, then the easiest way is to use the iptables nf_conntrack_amanda module. Then you just configure a

$IPTABLES -A FORWARD --match state --state NEW --in-interface $LAN_DEV --source $BAK_SERV --destination 0/0 --protocol udp --sport 1024: --dport 10080 --jump ACCEPT

rule for forwarding. You don't have to take care about the different ranges. Connection tracking is doing the dirty work for you.
