Hi Listserv,
I am trying to get "amrecover" to work.  I keep getting this message :

 # amrecover daily
AMRECOVER Version 2.4.4p2. Contacting server on localhost ...
220 lnxdev AMANDA index server (2.4.4p2) ready.
500 Access not allowed: [access as amanda not allowed from root@localhost]

This is even an FAQ-item:
