Dunno if this matters but I set the user on all three services to
'amanda'.  Also you do not have amidxtape in /etc/services and no port
specified in xinetd.conf.

Maybe add an explicit 'disable = no' ?   AFAIK this is the default but
maybe SUSE changed that.

- inetd.conf is:
- amandaidx stream tcp nowait root /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd amindexd
- amidxtape stream tcp nowait root /usr/lib/amanda/amidxtaped amidxtaped
- amanda dgram udp wait amanda /usr/lib/amanda/amandad amandad
-
- xinetd.conf is:
- defaults
- {
-         log_type        = FILE /var/log/xinetd.log
-         log_on_success  = HOST EXIT DURATION
-         log_on_failure  = HOST ATTEMPT RECORD
-         instances       = 2
- }
- service amandaidx
- {
-         socket_type     = stream
-         protocol        = tcp
-         wait            = no
-         user            = root
-         server          = /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd

- /etc/services is:
