See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/ and use the 
existing amanda ports as a guide.  Good luck.

Did you try to contact the port maintainer? You probably want to check
with him/her before you update the port no?

In any case, it's a good idea to update the port because we're going
to need it here too!

Good luck,

David

It's nice to contact the maintainer to ensure you don't duplicate efforts.  
But no need to ask permission to create an update patch. :)

I did contact the port maintainer, but he didn't respond at all. :(

Any help in getting this port updated would be greatly appreciated!

Follow the guide linked previously in the thread and feel free to ask about 
specific problems that you encounter.  We should also move this discussion to 
the freebsd-ports@ mailing list.
