The dumpuser describes the username under which dumps will be performed. It is specified in amanda.conf(5).

In Amanda Community Edition, this is generally amanda, unless the package was compiled with a different user (for example, many BSD installs use backup).

In Amanda Enterprise Edition, the dumpuser is amandabackup.
