Ehm
do you have the .amandahosts in user amandas homedir ?
or only in roots homedir ?
The amanda FAQ (docs/FAQ in the source tree) sez this
Q: Why does `amcheck' say `access as <username> not allowed...'
A: There must be something wrong with .amandahosts configuration (or
.rhosts, if you have configured --without-amandahosts).
First, if the <username> is not what you expect (i.e., not what you
have specified in the --with-user flag, at configure time), check the
inetd configuration file: you must have specified the wrong username
there.
Make sure you specify the names exactly as they appear in the error
message after the `@' sign in .amandahosts/.rhosts. You'll need a
fully-qualified domain name or not, depending on how your client
resolves IP addresses to host names.
