I have just inherited a system running Amanda. I have performed a few
test restores and it appears that the system is only backing up files
which are world readable.
I watched it perform a backup and it appears that it is using 'dumper' to
dump all information. This program is running as the user 'backup'. My
guess is there should be a SUID program which is calling dumper, or dumper
itself might need to be SUID w/group perms of backup.
I have scanned the docs and archives, but can't quite seem to figure this
out.
Any help would be great!
thanks,
matt
