Hi.

Well, I am quite sure that in some other Bacula-dirs I was able to get to file 
selection in Restore even with this pool-default setting. I just tried to 
confirm that, but well.. now I get the error on all directors, so that claim 
is groundless right now :)
What else I can tell from my memory is that in all the cases where I got this 
error first, Version Browser didn't work either.

But maybe Bat shouldn't preselect the pool that's set in job "RestoreFiles", 
just like wx-console doesn't use it? Because as I see it, the pool directive 
isn't necessary for restoration, is it?
