	I am trying to get amanda (backup software) set up for my small home
	network. I am running 2.2=STABLE on 2 of the machines. I found a port
	for amanda 2.3 and installed it. I would have prefered 2.4, but the
	sources do not comple cleany on FreeBSD yet :-(.

	Now here is the problem. When I run amcheck from the tape server
	(kodiek) I get the folowing errors from the FreeBSD machines.

	ERROR: koala: [access as bin not allowed from root@kodiak.fas.com]

	The amanda daemon is in inted,conf to be run as root. The port
	installed the daemn as owned by bin. Even changing this ownership to
	rooot did not change the message.

	The amanda docs mention that the amanda user needs to be able to
	rlogin. I can't figure out how to do this since the home directory for
	bin is /nonexistent.

	Does anyone have this working?
