On any amanda installation,

        amadmin - version


For amanda developers, an RFE, amadmin syntax is:
        amadmin config cmd cmd_args

So for the version cmd you have to supply a config argument.
Thus my "-" in the above command line.
It would make sense (to me) to allow the version cmd as an
exception to the general syntax and allow "amadmin version"
(i.e. with or without a config named).  Config doesn't make
much sense for the version cmd.  Nor on clients prior to
recent releases.
