Hi all,
    I read the faqs and other mails on yahoo goups about how to fix the
above error when
running amcheck for a new client. We have a recently setup server running
Debian 2.2. I have compiled amanda with Dump (which resides in /sbin/dump)
not GNUtar. 'configure' seems ok finding the path to dump and restore. I
have recompiled the install a few times chopping off unnecessary options.

grep DUMP /tmp/amanda/* says:
/tmp/amanda/amandad.20010717170045.debug:amandad:        RDEV_PREFIX="/dev/"
DUMP="/sbin/dump"
/tmp/amanda/amandad.20010717170045.debug:DUMP / 0 OPTIONS
|;bsd-auth;compress-best;index;
/tmp/amanda/amandad.20010717170045.debug:ERROR [DUMP program not available]

grep RESTORE /tmp/amanda/* says
/tmp/amanda/amandad.20010717170045.debug:amandad:
RESTORE="/sbin/restore" GNUTAR="/bin/tar"
/tmp/amanda/amandad.20010717170045.debug:ERROR [RESTORE program not
available]

I have wondered whether it is to do with paths, perms or group settings. But
both programs have world r and x. amanda knows the path and it has access to
the raw disks.

So there it is
any help would be greatly appreciated

Matt
