David,
The amanda user must be able to read it.
It must be 644 and owned by root.

Hi
Please could you let me know what the correct permissions and
ownership of /etc/amanda-security.conf should be.
I seem to have trouble running amcheck with owner of the file as
root:root and rwx for user only.
The file itself contains a single definition for /bin/tar on a
(Centos7 box):
/amgtar:gnutar_path=/bin/tar/
This is the error I see from amcheck:
/ERROR: localhost: [can not access '/etc/amanda-security.conf':
Permission denied (ruid:XXXX euid:XXXX)]/
Where XXXX is my amandauser system id.
thanks
David
