It looks like Amanda is calling /usr/sbin/backup incorrectly. I've
forgotten what flavor of system you're on, but if you can figure out how
'backup' *should* be called on your system, then we either need to
figure out how you can configure Amanda to call it that way, or add a
patch to Amanda to detect and correctly handle the differences.
