The user that amindexd runs as (from inetd.conf) needs to be able to read/write the index directories. Unless that user is root or in group wheel here, they'll not be able to chdir into /var/amanda/daily/index in the first place, and depending on the permissions under dev/, may not be able to uncompress the index files when it has to. Change the ownerships/permissions so that the user your amandaidx runs under can read/write down the index tree, and you should be right. Regards, Chris
