is the one I just installed.  From the dates, its the only candidate that 
makes sense.  I also made the conversion to -auth=bsd, which requires you 
edit the amanda file in /etc/xinetd.d and restart xinetd in addition to 
adding that argument to your ./configure driver script.  See my previous 
post for samples of those files.

Also, from the very last line of this wiki page:

<http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Configuring_bsd/bsdudp/bsdtcp_authentication>

I found I had to add amdump to the other 2 arguments added to 
~/.amandahosts on the server in order to satisfy amcheck.  I'd add it to 
the wiki, but have forgotten my login pw, if indeed I ever had one.  So 
could someone with edit privs please fix that?
