This is what I don't understand. backup, the amanda user on Debian, doesn't have permission to do anything in almost all of the DLE's, but they get backed up. And amcheck says none of the directories are accessible, but amdump gets some of them. *Some*. It was suggested that there might be some garbage leftover in /var/lock, so I went looking in /tmp/amanda. Thousands of files, but nothing that looked interesting, lock-wise. I looked at the selfcheck debug file on the client. All it says is "permission denied." > You mentioned that this DLE is a mounted disk?

Don't think so: /dev/hda2 /home/jerry/ote ext3 defaults 0 2 > If you get "permission denied" you still have a permission-problem ;) I know. I know. Something somewhere has decided that, but I can't figure out what or why. This is what's making me crazy :-) -- Glenn English [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG ID: D0D7FF20
