I have tried that, but it did not work for me, because the directory /usr/local/etc/amanda also contains all the tapelist files and it has to be owned by the used amanda in order for amdump/amtaper to update these files. My .amandahosts file is located in ~amanda which is different from /usr/local/etc/amanda, > It's been running this way for years. Idem. But my implementation may not completely follow the cannons from FreeBSD since I had installed it by hand long time before trying to use the ports.
