This message is a bit misleading. It really means:
`getpwnam(backup) was unsuccessful'. Perhaps getpwnam()
searched /etc/passwd, but perhaps it tried to use NIS
So it looks like this has something to do with me compiling this on
SCO. I've asked my local knowledgeable SCO guy and he gave me an
explanation that I don't understand but perhaps one of the coders
would. Should I direct this thread to amanda-hackers instead?

I certainly hope that version above is a typo. 1.13 is broken, you

Weird errors here. The root user is definitely in the passwd file.
Could this be part of the problem?
Thanks for any ideas on fixing this...
Maybe a silly question, but, can your amanda backup user read the passwd file
on that system?
