Yes, thanks. In addition to consuming an enormous amount of time, it almost killed me off. When I have a serious bug like that I cannot sleep until it is resolved -- unfortunately, I didn't recognize it as a kernel problem soon enough -- of course, I recognized the kernel was crashing, but I thought that Bacula was doing something bizarre, which seems not to be the case. What was misleading was that the last beta works fine, the current code fails. I suspect it has to do with memory placement (bigger/smaller program, I/O that crosses a page boundry, paging ...????). Yes, thanks for bringing up the bugs again, they would likely have gone without response. > > One problem I still see in CVS is that only one drive is used on a four drive > autochanger.

Yes, anything involving multiple drives is so terribly complicated that I'm obligated to ask for a test case. The first thing to do is to pull down the "rescue" module from the Bacula CVS. If would be *much* better if you can check it out of the CVS since you will be able to easily get any changes I make. If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll send you a tar file. Once you get it, read the README. It should be relatively self-explanatory. At that point, you should be able to run the regression scripts. Most likely you will see how easy it is to write one, if not, let me know and I'll explain some more. I'd recommend that you submit your multiple drive problem as a bug report, and attach a listing as a xxx.txt file with the SD set to debug level 50 (this should show us what the reservation system is doing). > > Another problem that I reported recently is that I cannot restore from an ACL > restricted windows wx console.

First, see if the same thing happens with a restricted bconsole, then submit a bug report specifying how to create it from "scratch", or you might be able to pinpoint the place where it is being rejected by turning on debug level 100 (or possibly higher) in the Director. If you can isolate where the test is going wrong, it can be easily fixed.
