Thanks Tomasz, but I can't get the script to change the group for
/dev/sg0 for some reason. Here is my script:

KERNEL=="st*",                  GROUP="tape", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="nst*",                 GROUP="tape", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="sg*",                  GROUP="tape", MODE="0660"

When I run it, the group and permissions for st* and nst* change, but
not sg*. Sticking bacula in group tape makes sense to me, but what
does it mean "add perm for group"?

cheers,
maria
