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?
