Hi there,

I upgraded Bacula from 5.0.3-2 to 5.2.13. Ithas no problem to run a backup job 
and back data directly on to USB deviceexcept "Autochanger" setting. I was 
trying to configure "Autochanger" to swap USB drives automatically fordata 
backupin order that I need not to manual exchange and mount HDD when one HDD is 
full.


I got below errors when trying below commands.


#Bacula is running as root

[root@backupsys bacula]# /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf 
list
/etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf is not an sg device, or old sg driver


[root@backupsys bacula]# su bacula /etc/bacula/mtx-changer 
/etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf list
cannot open SCSI device '/etc/bacula/usbchanger1.conf' - Permission denied


Also tried to run bacula as ID bacula but failed too

Configuration info:

Bacula version: bacula-5.2.13
OS: Fedora 14 (2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64)
Postgresql: postgresql-8.4.9-1.fc14.x86_64
