It needs a just do it option.  As you can see, it does find the correct, last 
recorded 'tape', to verify. No reason it can't just go do it.

I found where the trailing numbers were coming from, at one time, when I 
wrote the script, it needed the tape number, 2 in that instant case, and the 
runtapes value, 1 in my case, and my script passes them as args 1 and 2.
Now it appears to just ignore them.

No, I said amcheck's were fine I believe.

Oh Goody, NOT!  But I didn't notice that as I'm using auth=bsd.
I have catchup running, but in 3+ hours it has only done 2 of the seven I 
told it too.  I have another problem too, but I'll start a fresh thread for 
that.
