How portable are the disks? Will they wr

This means that there is no Tape Mark on the tape, meaning that the tape

Hi all,
I recently came into possession of a DDS-2 12 tape autoloader, and I've
got the loader part working fine, thanks to mtx (http://mtx.badtux.net/).

Asterisk is the way to go.
There are two BRI cards approved and available in .au that work with Asterisk.
The Fritz PCI card at around $350, or a NETjet PCI card at about half the
