I have just decided to give AMANDA a try and am learning as I go. I have
gotten as far as trying a manual amdump, but it seems the estimate is
failing and nothing gets backed up. What could this be?
The email report follows, and the amdump log is attached.

Brian,
You said manual dump, the amcheck succeeded ?
Did you find any files in the client's /tmp/amanda/ directory ?
Do you see any errors in /var/adm/{messages|SYSLOG} ?
The client's xinetd files are properly configured to activate
the service ? The client's .amandahosts file is properly setup
Yes, amcheck passed.
/tmp/amanda doesn't exist.
There isn't anything that seems to be related to amanda in the messages log.
amcheck didn't pass until I setup the xinetd files. Can I assume they are
setup correctly if amcheck is fine?
How can I test the .amandahosts file?

I would think that the following types would be nice / useful:

This morning, amanda (2.4.5) told me that some files changed during
the backup. I don't think it actually changed. Why does it mean by
"changed" ? The file in question was not being written to during
amanda's backup of the server, that I am sure of.
I'm suspecting a file "last access time" change.
