"backup" is in /etc/group under the group disks.
disk:x:6:backup and under /dev/ sd??'s are group disk
/var/backups/.amandahosts has,
localhost backup
the holding disk is set to backup:backup
but I dont think its getting that far.
I fogot to mention this is a Debian 2.2r2 machine and im backing up the
server itself
