Hmm ... this is what I have in inetd.conf: amandaidx stream tcp nowait amanda /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amindexd amindexd amidxtape stream tcp nowait amanda /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amidxtaped amidxtaped amanda dgram udp wait amanda /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amandad amandad and these are their privileges: pi# ls -l /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amindexd -r-xr-xr-x 1 amanda operator 23136 Sep 30 15:54 /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amindexd pi# ls -l /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amidxtaped -r-xr-xr-x 1 amanda operator 13604 Sep 30 15:54 /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amidxtaped pi# ls -l /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amandad -r-xr-xr-x 1 operator operator 13972 Sep 28 12:22 /usr/local/libexec/amanda/amandad Still don't see how to fix it ... should runtar be owned by root? If it can be owned by operator, then is it possible to change the permissions on /tmp/amanda accordingly? (i.e. without breaking yet another process?)
