Make sure all directories and files are readable and writable by the Amanda user, within the directory you specified as `infofile' in `amanda.conf'. From then on, only run amanda server commands (amadmin, amdump, amflush, amcleanup) as the Amanda user, not as root.



In general it is a good idea to do something like

  chown -R amanda:disk /usr/adm/amanda

at the the time you create the infofile and its related directory. (Adjust user/group and path to your installation.)
