I tried that already and it didnt like it at all.  If I 
put a line in .amandahosts that tells it to use operator
instead of backup, the server connects and still tries to
use user backup anyway...

I have .amandahosts on both server and client w/ a line that
tells it that it will use user operator.  From what I can see
I MUST use the same user on both client and server, i.e. 
If I have a redhat server that uses user operator, I must 
configure all my client to use operator.  It seems that I
read elsewhere that this should work, but it doesn't 
as far as I can see.  I dont know why...
