Is there a debugfile created  (/tmp/amanda/amandad.*.debug)?
What is in it?

Since changing the user in xinetd to 'amandabackup' there haven't been
any debug files. I checked by putting 'amanda' back in there and
restarting xinetd and I did get another debug file, complaining that
access as amandabackup is not allowed from amanad@orinoco.

amanad? Third variation now ... check for typos in there.

If ok, show us .amandahosts AND Output of amcheck again.

Decide for one user, amanda OR amandabackup.
What user did you configure/compile Amanda with?
Make sure that user exists on that system, add it to the disk-group.

orinoco.deanst.rroom.net        amanda
orinoco         amanda

and amcheck
