You could run amanda-server on the gateway and amanda-client on the server.
I'm not fond of amanda though, and generally don't recommend it, so you
could go a few steps simpler and use tar over ssh:
tar --rsh-command=/usr/bin/ssh -czvf <server>:/dev/mt0 <files>
Cute, huh? :-)

Because... It's YOUR LUCKY DAY! ;-) Hmm... I really don't know.
