Somewhat off topic.

We recently upgraded our servers to Windows 2000 server with SP3 running
Exchange 5.5 SP5.  The systems have DLT 7000's attached to them and I have a
recovery server that I use for restoration that also has a DLT 7000.

After upgrading the boxes to 2000 SP3 (including my recovery box), the
backup tape drive on the recovery system will not recognize the any tapes
from the other systems.  I put the tape in and I get use cleaning tape.
Looked at drivers and they are the same.  Rebuilt the system twice now no
luck.  I'm using an Adaptec driver and I lowered the speed to 20 and that
didn't do it.  I verified both systems are at the same service pack.  My
test box is pretty old, but it worked with NT.  I took the tapes back over
to the production box, and it see's them fine.  If I take some older tapes
and put them in, the DLT 7000 at least recognizes that there is old tape and
allows me to format them.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
