Thanks for the updated copy.

That's a little (OK, a lot) excessive.  The problems you describe in
this particular report are with amindexd and amidxtaped.  So all a site
has to do is disable them in inetd.conf.  They are not needed for the
backing up that Amanda does, and restores can be done without them.
