I have decided to clean out my old installations of Amanda 2.46, 2.6.0p1 rpm, 
and 2.6.0p1 from source and start fresh.  I noticed that the defaults of the 
install from source do not match the rpm from zmanda.  For example, The link 
http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Amanda_packages_from_Zmanda_downloads_page 
states that the Amanda commands are in /usr/sbin.  Installing from source puts 
them in /usr/local/sbin.  It appears that installing from source still puts the 
amanda user as the default dumpuser and not amandabackup.  Bottom line, I want 
my install from source directories and default user to matchup with intended 
direction of present and future packages.  I would use the RPM provided but I 
want to configure my installation configure --with-maxtapeblocksize=N.  I also 
am running the 64 bit version of SLES 10SP1 and want to compile with the 64 bit 
code.
