Did you look through the amcheck debug files that you saw in
/tmp/amanda?
Yes, since posting, I found an archived post suggesting this, in which I
find new information. However, I cannot understand its meaning:

Can you manually connect to the services in question? (eg telnet
localhost 10082, etc)?
Yes, and no . . .
# telnet localhost 10080
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
# telnet localhost 10082
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
# telnet localhost 10083
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
Your /etc/amandahosts has localhost commented out. If you're
connecting to localhost this could be a problem. Also, my
amandahosts is in /var/backup/.amandahosts, and I'm also running
Debian. Unless
/etc/amandahosts is a symlink to /var/backup/.amandahosts, you might
try adding your entries there.
# ls -al /var/backups/.amandahosts
lrwxrwxrwx 1 backup backup 16 Jun 30 23:56 /var/backups/.amandahosts
-> /etc/amandahosts
As I added in a previous exchange, much of the archives and Faq-O-Matic
strongly opposes use of localhost -- a point that interests me; but, has
little bearing on my particular solution ;
The real reason is that if you have a tape with a backup of
"localhost". What host is that? If the "normal" setup of amanda
you usually have more clients and one server. Some people even have
many servers (e.g. a standby server). They all started with a very
little configuration, only one host.
It's in that situation that "localhost" will bite you...
E.g. you want to restore a directory on a client. That client is
called "localhost" too (just installed with redhat, without a
decent network config), and before you know, you're restoring the
contents of your server called 'localhost' too.
(And localhost often does not have a reversed dns-entry.)
