I am in the operator group. I didn't know that obsd would recognize a
device hooked to an external scsi port, so that is the first hurdle.
There are some jumpers I do not yet understand, and switch on the back
which (apparently) sets the device's scsi id number. I am pretty sure
the cable is good, and that it is properly terminated as it was hooked
to a Novell server and used regularly not long ago. There is also a boot
time scsi config utility for the scsi card, which is set to the defaults.
Now I know what should be happening. Thanks for all the input, on and
off list. I'll post the solution.
