If you're talking about the listening side, well Amanda itself doesn't
listen on any sockets -- that's done by inetd and on FreeBSD you have to
have separate inetd instances listening on each different IP#.
As for the local addresses chosen for outgoing "connections", well
normally the kernel makes the right choice depending on your routing
table....
