The actual file SHOULD have a dot at the beginning of the name.
    .amandahosts
I guess if the one amanda USES   (perhaps  /var/backups/.amandahosts   but
I’d bet on the other one)    starts with a dot,  then it doesn’t much matter
what that link points to.
     But on the whole,  the file IS supposed to start with a dot.
