How can I configure amulecmd to schedule actions? (Linux)

You have to configure such jobs with crontab. Let's do it by example:

bash ~# crontab -e
00 6   * * * amulecmd -c "setupbwlimit 20"
00 22 * * * amulecmd -c "setupbwlimit 0"

Will set your download bandwith limit to 20 kb/s on 6:00am and unlimited on 10:00pm. For more possibilities see also aMuleCMD .

I cannot connect to aMuled. It seems aMuled does not create the listening port for connecting to it :-\?

You have probably not enabled External Connections in ~/.eMule
NOTE: If setting a value for the ECPassword doesn't seem to work, it might work with no password.
