I've noticed that restarting a failed group doesn't continue off of the work 
list, but instead generates a new one (subsequently backing up every client in 
the group, even the completed ones).
 
Also, I'm not sure if this has to do with the new nsrauth system, but I had 
gotten "authentication type 0 not adequate (1, 13)" errors whenever I tried to 
load volumes. A restart of the networker service fixed it, but I consistently 
got this error whenever the service is started for the first time (reboot).

        It seems that even if you turn it off, networker still tries to relable
        volumes that are already in the media database, but it claims that they
        are not, but fails to relabel the tape since theres already a volume 
with
        the same name in the media database. *sigh*
