What version of amanda are you running? The line 22 of your config that
seems to be causing the error is diskdir "/var/tmp/amanda", and diskdir
doesn't seem to be a valid parameter in my version (and probably not
yours either since it is showing an error). Is this a new install or
a currently running one, perhaps upgraded using the old config?
