Yah, I read that. That is why I made it setuid root. However, I'm currently 
running bacula-sd as root so I don't know what effect that will have. I tried 
running bacula-sd as "bacula" and leaving growisofs as setuid root and that 
didn't work either.

I did a "sudo su" (without the full login dash) and then started 
an /etc/init.d script I created to start bacula-sd which runs as root. That 
might leave the real uid ssimpson (my login) and the effective uid root 
whereas your su with the dash above may change my real uid. I'll have to try 
it your way. I also need to try to edit the sudoers rules and see if that 
helps. Any techniques you have would be welcome.

I'm running Ubuntu Dapper so I couldn't use the Bacula 1.36 that came with it 
because it didn't support DVDs. I didn't want to upgrade to Edgy which isn't 
released yet but Edgy supports 1.38. Therefore, I grabbed the HEAD. I'm quite 
willing to help you test this. Let me know when it is in a state that I can 
get the latest version and I'll try it out.

Kudos to Kern and you and others. Looks like a great program. I'm close to 
having it working!
