Amanda needs some kind of way to be launched when somebody knocks on a port, when using standard authentication. Would that be inetd, xinetd or some tool from daemontool/s6 or maybe probably systemd. Also it can transport using ssh but this is more difficult to set up and doesn't support the windows client. -- Lorenzo Marcantonio
