"backup" is the username used by the Debian-compiled packages, so from
the error message you are getting it looks like the Amanda binaries on
shop come from a Debian package. You can either update your
xinetd.d/amandaclient file there to run with the user "backup", or
install your locally-compiled binaries (which presumably were compiled
to run under the "amandabackup" user) on that machine instead of the
Debian ones.
