I think you mean "default" as "included in the example config".
No. I mean: I haven't this two variables in my config. And if a variable is not there, then I guess amanda uses it's internal default values for that. The manpage shows that default values for many options, that are used, when not configured.
A year or so ago there was some confusion over - or _, and we realized that half of our params had - and half had _. Since there was no rhyme or reason to it (we had a parameter or two with *both* if I recall correctly), we decided to make the config consider them to be the same thing. It ain't pretty, but it works. So you can spell it either way.
Ok. It's just confusing. The warning says "_" and the manpage says "-". Maybe it would be good to use one way everywhere in the application/documentation and allow both (for backward compatibility) in the configuration.
Please also have a look at my "3.1.1: Bug in function that reads amandapass" Mail I posted to the list 05.08.2010 16:08.
