Hello Giovanni

You were right - it was a permissions issue on the changer suite of
files.

Once I corrected them, amanda is functional once again.


Your help is much appreciated,
Samuel

Try to check permission on changer file (it's owned by amanda?).
Then, run amcheck to see if there's a configuration problem.
