Now that I have this working, even though incorrectly, I want to use 
bscan to scan the rest of my media. I know at least one of my tapes has 
my previous Bacula settings and I want to reuse those. Problem is, some 
of the labels I wrote on the tapes do not match the actual tape label as 
bacula and bscan see it. Is there a way to have bscan or bacula report 
the volume name so that I can scan the volume? When I run bscan without 
a volume name it complains about no volume name, if I use an incorrect 
volume name it times out waiting for a volume that is not inserted.

Thanks again,
Rick
