Why is amandad owned by operator and not amanda? I'm not sure that's making a big difference assuming amanda is in the operator group, but it looks like some permissions are a little wonky. All of my files are owned by amanda:disk with the exception of amqde, calcsize, killpgrp, rundump and runtar. Those are owned by root and setuid. So, make sure amanda is in the right group and double check the permissions... Matt -- Matt Hyclak Department of Mathematics Department of Social Work Ohio University (740) 593-1263
