I'm not arguing against running tests on an installed Bacula running as a 
service, but it is not really necessary for most of the tests.  I just think 
it would be nice to have a regression script where it is not *required*.  On 
Linux, we have a few tests that require root permission because they do more 
extensive testing ...
