Amanda is likely the wrong group. its unpriviledged. amanda should be a member of some priviledged group, such as disk or backup. It would be ebst if that install was ripped out, a chown -R amanda:disk * done in the top level of the directory tree, do a make clean, then su amanda and reconfigure and make amanda as the user amanda, then become root and do the make install. I've found recently that a run of ldconfig seems to be required after updateing my amanda install, so that might be needed on AIX too, but I don't know the exact command on AIX that does the equ of ldconfig on linux. >su amanda -c "amcheck /usr/local/etc/amanda/CLASS-WV/Full" >Segmentation fault (core dumped) > >I have configured and maintained amanda before, and never > experienced this problem before.
