Still doesn't work. I've split the /home partition into several pieces as
recommended in an earlier message (my disklist entries are included at
the end). Since I havent' received the usual email report from amanda
(why??), I went to /tmp/amanda to see the logs. It looks like sendsize
is run with non-root privileges hence it cannot stat/read individual
home directories (quite normal as they are restricted to the owner). This
is what I found:
