Nice one Matt :-)
I compiled from source... but I'll rebuild it with the option that
points each client to a predifined index server. Thanks for the tip...

I compile with "--with-indexserver=amandahost", and then set up
a DNS alias for "amandahost", pointing to whatever is the current
host that does amanda indexing services. Let's me migrate amanda to
another server without recompiling all the clients.
