Typically this means you have lost the setuid-root bit on the amcheck
executable. Here are all the Amanda programs that **must** be setuid
root:
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 244716 Dec 1 14:19 libexec/calcsize
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 804540 Dec 1 14:23 libexec/dumper
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 233312 Dec 1 14:19 libexec/killpgrp
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 945028 Dec 1 14:23 libexec/planner
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 231016 Dec 1 14:19 libexec/rundump
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 231852 Dec 1 14:19 libexec/runtar
-rwsr-x--- 1 root backup 953900 Dec 1 14:23 sbin/amcheck
The best way to fix this is just re-install Amanda (and verify the
permissions afterward).
Another possibility is that you're going through a firewall of some
type and it needs to be configured to allow privileged ports for Amanda.
See the FAQ (www.amanda.org) for more information.
