I just tried to rub what I do have and it makes zero difference whether I am amanda or backup (theres no amandabackup user in the pw file so I can't even become amandabackup. And as amanda or as backup I get thrown out of running amcheck, with no permissions exits. Go back to the amanda:disk or amanda:backup model for starters. This is insane!!! ============================================= root@coyote:~$ su backup backup@coyote:/root$ /usr/sbin/amcheck Daily amcheck: critical (fatal): Cannot create debug file "/var/log/amanda/server/amcheck.20190525035437.debug": Permission denied amcheck: Cannot create debug file "/var/log/amanda/server/amcheck.20190525035437.debug": Permission denied /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/amanda/libamanda-3.3.9.so(+0x2a367) [0x7fca9fdf7367] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0(g_logv+0x1e4)[0x7fca9ea945c4] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0(g_log+0x8f)[0x7fca9ea947cf] /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/amanda/libamanda-3.3.9.so(debug_open+0x1d3) [0x7fca9fdf7893] /usr/sbin/amcheck(main+0xa1)[0x56283f254451] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf1)[0x7fca9de0c2e1] /usr/sbin/amcheck(_start+0x2a)[0x56283f25568a] backup@coyote:/root$ cd backup@coyote:~$ ls alternatives.tar.0 alternatives.tar.6.gz apt.extended_states.5.gz dpkg.diversions.3.gz dpkg.statoverride.2.gz dpkg.status.1.gz group.bak alternatives.tar.1.gz apt.extended_states.0 apt.extended_states.6.gz dpkg.diversions.4.gz dpkg.statoverride.3.gz dpkg.status.2.gz gshadow.bak alternatives.tar.2.gz apt.extended_states.1.gz aptitude.pkgstates.0 dpkg.diversions.5.gz dpkg.statoverride.4.gz dpkg.status.3.gz passwd.bak alternatives.tar.3.gz apt.extended_states.2.gz dpkg.diversions.0 dpkg.diversions.6.gz dpkg.statoverride.5.gz dpkg.status.4.gz shadow.bak alternatives.tar.4.gz apt.extended_states.3.gz dpkg.diversions.1.gz dpkg.statoverride.0 dpkg.statoverride.6.gz dpkg.status.5.gz alternatives.tar.5.gz apt.extended_states.4.gz dpkg.diversions.2.gz dpkg.statoverride.1.gz dpkg.status.0 dpkg.status.6.gz backup@coyote:~$ pwd /var/backups ============================================ I have no clue what all that is about, let alone why is backup's home directory in /var/backups, but that is what I got from the last build attempt of the last tarball I could find.
