Actually, it looks like the maintainer of the FreeBSD Amanda ports has upgraded
them to use the amanda 2.4.3b1 release and renamed them to just "amanda-server"
and "amanda-client". You should find that the whole "tapeio" feature set is
part of the port, and that the port is very easy to build.
If you have updated your ports distribution since December 3 or thereabouts,
you should find the Amanda ports in:
/usr/ports/misc/amanda-server
and
/usr/ports/misc/amanda-client
The build process will build and install GNU tar and GNU make before
building Amanda. There are a few of the "configure" options that may be
manipulated, type "make pre-fetch" to see them before making/installing.
Again, I hope this helps,
-Ben
