Was this BEFORE or AFTER editing?

If BEFORE:

There is a index-dir where the index-files should go to.

Check your amanda.conf for something like

indexdir "/usr/adm/amanda/daily/index"

See if there are files generated. Check permissions of dir.

Check sendbackup.*.debug in your amanda-log-dir (usually something
like /tmp/amanda). The generation of the indizes gets logged there.

Like in:

> sendbackup: time 0.197: started index creator: "/bin/tar -tf - 2>/dev/null | 
> sed -e 's/^\.//'"
> sendbackup: time 75.849: index created successfully
> sendbackup: time 75.973:  46:    size(|): Total bytes written: 66344960 
> (63MB, 855kB/s)
