I've tried different ownership for amindexd.

Here's the xinetd configuration for amindexd.

Thanks
Rich


[root@fastkernel xinetd.d]# cat amandaidx
# default: off
#
# description: Part of the Amanda server package

service amandaidx
{
        socket_type             = stream
        protocol                = tcp
        wait                    = no
        user                    = amanda
        group                   = disk
        server                  = /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd
        disable                 = yes
}
