You don't actually show the config file, but if you've cut-n-pasted that message text, then perhaps "ocnf1" is supposed to be "conf1". If the directory "ocnf1" doesn't exist, Amanda would have a hard time processing it.

If that's just a typo transcribing the error message (given the <return> in the middle of that string "oc<return>nf1", then check the permissions of that directory, the ones above and the file amanda.conf in it to see if it's readable by user "amandabackup".

If you're still having problems, you'll want to post what version of Amanda you are using, and on what platform (system type and version), and anything else that might help folks figure out what the issue is.
