>So according to this, runtar has to be called by the user operator. ... Right. Whoever built your RPM decided that was the way it should be. The value is built into the binary. >But the user that amanda is running as is 'backup'. ... Why? If the RPM is set up to be run as "operator", seems like that's how that person sees the world and therefor that's how you are being forced to use it. >So how can I get runtar to run >as a different user? Is that the problem? Yes, that's the problem. We usually suggest people build from sources so they can set their own configuration information, such as the Amanda user. Now you know why. >JA John R.
