I would take a look in the debug files on the client, usually in
the dir /tmp/amanda/. There you can see files "amandad.datetime.debug"
which contain the packet received, and the replies.  If there
are no debug files, than amandad isn't even started.

You left out just the useful information.
Or the fact that there is none.
From the above,  it seems like there was no REQ packet at all.
You get that also when you portscan the client, and tickle the (x)inetd
daemon that a new packet is received on port 10080.
Or when you start amandad manually.
In that case, amandad waits for a UDP packet, and times out after
30 seconds.
So, question is: is there a UDP packet (invalid, corrupt...) in the
lines that you cut out?

i think there was no useful information in the leftout part, but look for yourself:
