i don't have an amanda user. i do have a 'backup' user which runs the amanda 
program according to xinetd:
service amanda
{
        socket_type     = dgram
        protocol        = udp
        wait            = yes
        user            = backup
        server          = /usr/lib/amanda/amandad
}

and as i had in my original mail the user backup is a member of the correct 
group. 

also, it can't access 2 out of the 3 disks on the system, so it can access 
something..just not everything. all permissions are identical

thanks
