OK, I *think* you're off-by-one.

So the changer thinks first slot is "1", but you've said 'startuse 0'.
when you go 'amtape DailySet1 slot first' and 'slot last', and you
go physically watch the robot, which tapes move?

Besides which, if you *are* going to use cleancart (and I'm not sure
it really works in Amanda at all), I'm pretty sure enduse == cleancart
is not right.
