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
