I've gotten a few answers to my problem below (thanks to those who
responded), but now I have a little more information so I thought I would
show my latest log to make sure that I'm barking up the right tree with a
permission problem. Below is my latest log:

Does anyone know if permissions are my problem? If not, what else could be
wrong? If so, what is it telling me when it asks if each partition is
offline?
Thanks,
Rob

Subject: User Configuration for Amanda
I'm currently trying to get Amanda running on my Compaq Tru 64 UNIX system
and seem to be having a problem with user permissions. I understand that a
typical AMANDA configuration uses a user other than root, however I haven't
found much information (maybe I'm not looking in the right place) about how
to set up that other user. There are files on the system which are only
readable by the root user, so I'm wondering how another user can read those
files unless it is also a privileged user. Can anyone give me an overview
of a typical user setup for a UNIX server?
Thanks,
Rob
