It is. Just for clarity here's amcheck run as amandabackup with the server
running as root:

-bash-3.2$ id
uid=33(amandabackup) gid=6(disk) groups=6(disk)
-bash-3.2$ amcheck DailySet3
Amanda Tape Server Host Check

....

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: zen: service /usr/libexec/amanda/noop failed: pid 21835 exited with code
1
Client check: 1 host checked in 1.114 seconds.  1 problem found.

And here's the other error if I run amcheck as amandabackup with the server
running as amandabackup:

-bash-3.2$ amcheck DailySet3
Amanda Tape Server Host Check

...

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------

yes, sure, because this is the version in the rpm package of the distribution
