(Well, the point is you might have to copy it into the path you
designated in --with-security-file= .... and given what Charles just
discovered in his testing, it looks the install process will NOT put it
there automatically, so you will need to copy the file into place if it
isn't left over there from earlier.
[See the threads from last October to review the discussion as to why
/usr/local/etc is not suitable for the amanda-security.conf file on your
particular server.])

(Actually, those look correct.)
Earlier today (in a separate thread) you wrote:

... which does not match (as far as the group) what you specified in
your gh.cf script (at least in versions I have seen so far).
What do
# grep amanda /etc/passwd /etc/group
and
# grep backup /etc/passwd /etc/group
show on that box?
