Hello :-) The issue seems to be with vchanger 0.8.5 and auto-mounting; it may be specific to Slackware 13.0.
After disabling auto-mounting, manually mounting the USB HDD and reconfiguring Bacula sd to suit, the "label barcodes" command worked.

All was going well until issuing the bconsole "label barcodes" command (details below). Investigating using the bconsole "update slots scan" command with the bacula-sd running with debug in the foreground gave: [CODE] 28-Feb-2010 20:54:23 ps1-sd: autochanger.c:196-0 Run program=/usr/bin/vchanger /etc/bacula/changer1.conf load 1 /var/bacula/changer1/0/drive0 0 28-Feb-2010 20:54:23 ps1-sd: autochanger.c:207-0 load slot 1, drive 0, bad stats=Unknown error during program execvp. 28-Feb-2010 20:54:23 ps1-sd: autochanger.c:214-0 load slot 1 status=268435711 [/CODE] Stopping Bacula and simulating the apparent problem command, it ran OK: [CODE] r...@ps1:~# /usr/bin/vchanger -u bacula -g bacula /etc/bacula/changer1.conf load 1 /var/bacula/changer1/0/drive0 0 r...@ps1:~# echo $? 0 [/CODE] That's the essence of the problem. What follows is more detail in case it helps.
