I checked the xinetd.d entry on the client:
service amanda
{
      socket_type     = dgram
      protocol        = udp
      wait            = yes
      user            = backup
      group           = backup
      groups          = yes
      server          = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
}

I checked the logs:

/usr/local/var/amanda/DailySet1/log/amdump.1:planner: USE_AMANDAHOSTS CLIENT_LOGIN="backup" FORCE_USERID HAVE_GZIP

So it seems to me everywhere I look that it should be running with user "backup" but it still tries to run as localuser 'root'. I just don't understand it.
