This is a really weird part of Amanda that is (unfortunately, IMHO) being duplicated in new applications. For non-Amanda clients, Amanda requires that you use three different components: AMANDA SERVER -> AMANDA CLIENT -> BARRACUDA where the first two components are running on the server system. So your DLE would look like: localhost "//barracudama450.my.domain.com/path/to/interesting/data" and you would configure the /etc/amandapass on the Amanda server.
