My guess is that it's a setuid program; I find these particular styles
of programs difficult to get the permissions to stay correct.
Generally:
[root]# chown root.disk runtar
[root]# chmod ug+rxs runtar
What generally happens is that the chown dumps the sticky bit which
causes the program to fail. One other thing you could try is to run
AMANDA as root itself and see whether you still get the same error - if
root itself can't actually run the program then it's obviously not a
permission problem but something else.
