I am running amanda 2.4.5 on RH EL 3 AS. amdump runs fine, but I get
the following error if I run amstatus during a dump:

Insecure $ENV{PATH} while running setuid at /usr/sbin/amstatus line 60.

Here are the local lines from amstatus:

56 if ( ! -d "$confdir/$conf" ) {
57 die "amstatus$suf: could not find directory $confdir/$conf";
58 }
59
60 $pwd = `pwd`;
61 chomp $pwd;
62 chdir "$confdir/$conf";

The error that is thrown seems unusal for such a simple command.

Anyone seen this before or have any suggestions?
