Phew. I was hoping it wasn't completely my fault! > > Is there some way I can find out which directories it's looking for > > .amandahosts ?

Ah, by directories, I meant what directories does amanda search for .amandahosts in (apart from ~amanda). I think it's all fine, as far as I can tell - (it had been working previously). I had problems previously where ~amanda/../.. didn't have execute access, and I only found this when I su'd to amanda and tryed to cat ~amanda/.amandahosts, and it failed. I can cat it now, fine. So the permissions *look* fine. root@bart /# su - amanda bash-2.02$ ls -l ~amanda/.amandahosts -rw------- 1 amanda amanda 50 Sep 19 15:44 /space/dumps/.amandahosts bash-2.02$ cat ~amanda/.amandahosts bart amanda bart.jinny.ie amanda localhost amanda bash-2.02$
