Also, as before, the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables are identicalfor the two sessions.


I appreciate the suggestion though. I hadn't checked that yet.



Some random tips and checks:

Is there a space character after the variable? Like in:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib ";  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ echo "x${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}x"
x/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib x

You did "export" the variable for user amanda, did you?

Try the "ldd -s amcheck" to find out where it tries to find the module.
What is the difference when running as root vs. amanda?

Is it compiled as a 64-bit application?
Use the command "crle" and "crle -64" to find out the difference.
Is there a libgcc_s.so.1 accessible as amanda in the 64-bit environment?

Use "crle -u -l /usr/local/lib" to update the default search path,
instead of using LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
