Run amlabel on the machine with the tape drive...

You anyway need physical access to that machine, if only to load the
tape, so you could even run the command from that machine too.

I don't know if there is a way to do remote amlabel (well something
else that rsh other.machine.com amlabel...) but I wouldn't see much
use for it, except if you have a tape robot that can handle 200
cartridges (and in that case you have big $$ and would go by something
else than Amanda I beleive).
