.

DIR_GROUP=root
FD_USER=root
FD_USER=root
SD_USER=root
SD_GROUP=root
.

and started bacula .  Its working fine now.
Thanks a lot again for the help,

it seems that the bacula-sd daemon have no permission to write on your
tape device.
You probably runned the ./btape test as root, and the bacula-sd daemon
runs as another user (ex: tape).
You should either change the permission on /dev/nst0 (dirty) or add the
bacula daemon to the correct group (look at /dev/nst0).
