hi...

my /etc/inetd.conf looks like this on all of my freebsd 7 systems.

amanda  dgram   udp     wait    amanda  /usr/local/libexec/amandad
-auth=bsd amdump amindexd amidxtaped

A 'amandad' is missing, it should be:

and it works like a charm, except for that one system... gladly I'm only
the backup-administrator of that system. I wasn't the one who did the
setup, so I'm not quite sure if there's something wrong with the system
setup...

are there any hints on what to check, or how to trace/ debug this
failure in more detail?

when I try to do an 'amcheck' on my daily backup jobs I have one system,
that does not pass the selftest.
it's configured identically to some other machines that work like a
charm.

the debug output of 'amandad' on the client side looks like this:

-auth=bsd: debug 1 pid 76969 ruid 1002 euid 1002: start at Wed Jul 16

'-auth=bsd' at the beginning of the line is bogus, check your inetd/xinetd 
configuration.
