I use amanda to create backups that are split to fit on a dvd, but so far
I have not been able to create the dvd. It may be a permissions problem,
or it may be a k3b problem. I have tried to make the backup by running
k3b as amanda, and also by running k3b as root.
I just use cdrecord:

Thanks for the link, Paul.
I'm assuming that I should do this as user 'amanda', since she owns the files.
Amanda is a member of group disk, and disk has write access to the /Backup
directory.
Using
mkisofs -joliet -uid 0 -gid 0 -file-mode 444 -dir-mode 555
-output /Backup/mybackup.iso
I get 'mkisofs: Missing pathspec.'
What am I doing wrong?
You are missing the last parameter of the mkisofs command. You need to
tell it *what* to put in /Backup/mybackup.iso
Which in the example in the link above is "." (easily missed...)
