My guess (and this is just a guess) would be that they have restricted
access to root. That's what the older sst driver does. What happens
if you (carefully) run your test as root instead of the Amanda user?
If this is the problem, we obviously cannot fix it as we were able to do
with the source to sst (it's a dumb bug anyway -- the permissions on the
device should control access, IMnsHO). So you'll either need to use the
(modified -- see below) sst driver that comes with Amanda or we'll have
to make chg-scsi setuid root whenever it needs to do ioctls -- ick.

** I don't think the "allow non-root" changes are in the current
sources. I keep meaning to commit them but haven't gotten around to
it yet. If you want to go this route, either find them in the E-mail
archive or ask me -- they are trivial.
