ERROR amindexd: invalid service

My interpretation of this error is that it couldn't find the service
named amindexd.  Is this something new in 2.5, as in 2.4 it was named
amandaidx, which is what is in your xinetd config and probably in
your /etc/services as well.

If you don't get a more definitive answer, try changing the name in
/etc/services and see what happens (I think that is the name that
matters on lookups, not the name in your xinetd config, but I could
be wrong and you might want to change both and try again).
amindexd is not a system services, it is an amanda service, it should not be listed in /etc/services
