I think you are probably getting two separate things confused. Your SD daemon
must have the correct permissions to open the drive. Mine test SD runs as
"kern" here with no problems. However, when the SD attempts to set the drive
parameters, the kernel will prohibit it and log a message. However, Bacula
will simply continue and as long as your drive is in the correct mode, which
is 99.9999% the case, there will be no problems other than a log message
about MTSETDRVBUFFER ...
