Thomas:
The way to edit the Amanda Cron is with the command:

crontab -e

And if  you want just to list the cron jobs:
crontab -l

Advice you have to be logged as Amanda user, although you can have
direct access to all the user's cron jobs in the directory
/var/spool/cron, this directory holds all the cron files assigned to
each user that have a cron job
