Have a bad day Jason?

Nina,

Someone had written a webmin module for amanda, but it was a work-in-progress
when I last saw it.  Certainly none is part of the amanda distribution.

Many amanda users feel that a gui interface is not a benefit for a "set it
up and forget it" type of application like amanda.


As to packages, sounds like you are thinking rpm type packages.  I don't
how any particular linux distribution packages them.  If you build and
install from source (recommended here), the client pieces can be built
and installed separately.  Remember that the server is also a client
if it backs up itself.
