+Notes on making amanda-client work on a Debian system
+
+
+To get indexing (or specifically amrecover) to work right two things need
+to be done:
+
+1. Edit server's /etc/hosts.allow and allow all client machines into
+   the daemons amindexd & amidxtaped.
+
+2. Edit the server(s) ~backup/.amandahosts and add an entry like:
+   "<client_hostname>   root"
+
+
+As always: for more complex setups consult the manpages and available
+documentation in /usr/share/doc/amanda-common ;-)
