Hi Paul, Thanks and, yes, that was it. The community package to which you refer works.
Note that RHEL7/CentOS7 now use systemd extensively and amanda backup networking is handled by amanda.socket in their native packages (i.e. they do not use xinetd). The community package still uses xinetd. Are there any plans to update the community packages to use the systemd structure?
