I need to admit I couldn't right now follow why this solved it.
But yes, it did solve the problem  :-)

After a quick test, at least the catalog backup now runs ok with
proper uid:gid as follows:

root       2096      1  0 Feb22 ?        00:00:14 bacula-fd -c
/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf -u root -g root
bacula    37775      1  0 11:47 ?        00:00:01 bacula-sd -c
/etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -u bacula -g tape
bacula    37879      1  0 11:50 ?        00:00:00 bacula-dir -c
/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf -u bacula -g bacula

About the tape changer problem I mentioned... I'm using a slighltly modified 
version of mtx-changer script, which used to be -rwxr-xr-- and worked. I 
changed it to world-executable (-rwxr-xr-x) like the original 
bacula-supplied one is, now it also works. But I agree with you, something 
that caused this propably has changed in the code.


Thanks,
Timo
