Thats presuming that 'asterix' is an alias for the FQDN listed in
your /etc/hosts file? And why is it using localhost? That doesn't
work for amrecover as you've just found out.
Also, perms on that file really should be 0600 although I recall a
previous message that said it could be 0777 as far as amanda was
concerned. Its just that its a security concern when made that
freely accessable.
And if you're running amrecover as root, I'd imagine that root also
needs to be in that file too. However, if you have, as amanda, perms
to write to some scratchpad dir for the recovery, then I'd imagine
you could run amrecover as amanda. Personally, I've not done it.
