Folks: If you happen to upgrade to 1.38.6 and you start getting 
permission 
errors on your tape drive, when it worked in previous versions, a 
work around
may be changing the group for bacula-sd.

For me, in FreeBSD, I add this to /etc/rc.conf:

bacula_sd_flags=" -u bacula -g operator -v -c /usr/local/etc/bacula-
sd.conf"

In short, I'm running as the group specified on /dev/sa0

# ls -l /dev/sa0
crw-rw----  4 root  operator   14,   0 Mar 13  2005 /dev/sa0

And not as the group bacula, of which bacula is a member:

# id bacula
uid=910(bacula) gid=910(bacula) groups=910(bacula), 5(operator)

I'm trying to find the cause of this problem.
