A few more ideas to check:
Have you tried running the command in your inetd.conf, such as
/usr/local/libexec/amandad on the command line as your backup user?
You might have permissions issues or missing libraries that prevents
it from running.
If it works on the command line, try restarting inetd, and also
check the system logs to see if inetd has trouble starting it.
