This says Amanda was built with "operator" as the Amanda user, but that
amandad (and then sendbackup and then runtar) is being run as some
other user from inetd/xinetd. Furthermore, the first line says they
are running as uid 33, whoever that is.
So, you either need to change inetd.conf or the xinetd config file to
run amandad as "operator" (and get the config file reread), or you need
to rebuild Amanda with --with-user=<whatever-uid-33-is>.
