I've got my user amanda who is a member of the disk group, and although 
permissions on all amanda files seem fine, when I try to run
su amanda -c "/usr/sbin/amtape DailySet1 show"

I get the error
amtape: could not get changer info: no slots available

I can however run this successfully as root.

My tape device is /dev/sg0 and the changer is /dev/sg1. Both have permissions 
root:disk (along with everything else in /dev it appears)

My amanda config files are in /etc/amanda/DailySet1 and amanda is the owner of 
/etc/amanda and all files beneath that.

I'm running SLES 10 and installed Amanda through YaST which is v2.4.5

I also uninstalled that and tried doing it directly from source, with exactly 
the same problem...

Any help would be great.

Thanks!
