Diego you are right and thanks for the reminder! I should have checked that
but forgot! There is indeed an SE Alert regarding the access issue.

There is no installed policy for amgtar so I've created one and done a
manual dump which looks good.

Thanks for your insight and help.

Kind regards,
Tom

I'm not coming up with any definitive explainations off the top of my
head...


What OS and/or distribution is this running on?  How did you install
Amanada?

Can you navigate down into the directories that generate these errors
using "ls" executed manually (as root)?

Do you have apparmor or similar kernel-level security enforcement
active?
