I'm still stuck .... anybody? Anybody at all?
I don't see a response to Jean-Louis Martineau's suggestions.
You did "su backup ./amlabel daily daily-21 slot21" originally. I see
two or three issues with that.
For starters, I would use "su - backup ..." so that you actually get the
environment of the backup user.
Second, "./..." has no meaning out of context of what your environment
is and what your working directory is. You should use the full path as
Jean-Louis suggested. Your use of "./..." implies that you have a script
to do the labels or that you have cd'd into /usr/local/sbin, which is
not standard procedure at all.
Third, as Jean-Louis said, you want to tell amlabel "slot 21" (note the
space). The syntax (see `man amlabel`) is to give it the slot keyword
followed by the slot number, not to tell it the name of a directory
corresponding to the slot.
So, try
# su - backup amlabel daily daily-21 slot 21
