Package: amanda-server
Version: 2.5.1p1-2

Apparently, the security model for version 2.5.1 and later has changed. Consequently, running amrecover after the install fails with the following error:

AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1p1. Contacting server on localhost ...
NAK: user root from localhost is not allowed to execute the service amindexd: Please add "amindexd amidxtaped" to the line in /var/backups/.amandahosts

After changing the amandahosts file appropriately, and trying to run amrecover again:

AMRECOVER Version 2.5.1p1. Contacting server on localhost ...
NAK: amindexd: invalid service

This is apparently caused by inetd.conf needing different configuration parameters for the amanda services than what the stock install used.
