Craig,
My L9 has an LTO drive, but no, I am not aware that the cables are
any different than LVD or SE. But I could be wrong, my cables came
with the card and drive, all purchased together.
I found the chg-zd-mtx drivers/glue the correct ones for my site.

As I mentionned in another thread last week, I can't have amanda parse
correctly the conf file. Looks like a runaway recursive bug.
I'm very eager to have this working as I'm being bitten by the udp max

a second drive to in order to increase throughput and thereby decrease

Jean-Francois,
Your file parse correctly on my machine.
Could you attach the amanda.conf file instead of putting it inline
in the mail, maybe the mailer and or remove something.
