Two possibilities come to mind: a.) Something in the service definition for svc:/network/amanda/udp is broken. Check and compare the output from running inetadm -l against the three services. b.) You've discovered a bug in the new inetd implementation. Follow the instructions in the URL above and chase it down with Sun. If this: <http://forum.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=24302> is you, then I don't see anything obvious wrong with the service definition.
