Getting the errors is very difficult or I would have posted them. The
server does not have a mail client set up yet and the errors only show
on the servers screen not on the SSH screen.
The problem turned out to be SELinux.
There seems to be a policy that blocks pg_dumpall from working no matter
what user I am logged in as.
For now since it is a test system behind a firewall I will just turn off
SELinux until I can take the time to learn that part of Linux.
