It's likely to be the problem. The user that is going to be used to
start the various Amanda programs is hard-coded into the binaries.
This user is specified at configure-time (--with-user), and you have
to rebuild to change it.
Assuming that's not what you want to do, you'll have to modify the
entry in inetd.conf or in the xinetd configuration file so that
amandad is started as user operator, as specified in the RPM specs.
