Hello everybody,
I recently upgraded my Debian(sarge)-packages of amanda to version
2.4.4p2-2, which caused a total mess of permissions/ownerships in /usr/sbin:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        31156 2004-03-15 08:16 /usr/sbin/amadmin

/usr/sbin/amverifyrun

The amanda-user on Debian is "backup", group "backup".
I don't want to build amanda from scratch (since everything used to be working
fine), and I couldn't find a *complete* list of which files have to be
run suid root - suggestions welcome ;-)

So everything I have to do should be
$:# chown root:backup filestochange
$:# chmod 4750 filestochange
??
Sorry again for the FAQ, but after 2 hours research I gave up ;->

Thanks in advance,
Bernhard
