Howdy folks.  To keep it short:

1) Can someone point me to online docs that I have seen allusions to in the 
archives but haven't found online yet?

2) amcheck reports the messages below.  Is there a requirement to label tapes 
prior to usage?  The tapes in my changer are used:

   amcheck-server: slot 0: not an amanda tape
   amcheck-server: slot 1: not an amanda tape
   amcheck-server: slot 2: not an amanda tape
   amcheck-server: slot 3: not an amanda tape
   amcheck-server: slot 4: not an amanda tape
   ERROR: new tape not found in rack
          (expecting a new tape)

3) If I attempt what I believe to be labelling a tape, I get:

   labeling tape in slot 0 (/dev/nst0):
   rewinding, reading label, not an amanda tape
   rewinding, writing label test00
   amlabel: writing label: tape is write-protected

4) My planner is failing and giving up, supposedly because it isn't receiving 
and responses on the estimates.  Shouldn't it calculate these on its own?  
I'm confused about how the estimate system works.
