I've got amanda running here to Sunos 4.1.3/4 clients using dump as the
file grabber.
If you wish I can have have a go at getting the latest version compiled

this works with amanda or not??

If your SUN is connected to a cisco switch make sure is actually running
at 100m fdx as alot of the older SUNs and Cisco have some wierd problem
with autonegotiate. I've also seen problems with Cisco's under high load
with SNMP turned on giving

make sure that the 'bin' user has access to the /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 (or
whatever). It will probably need to be a member of sys on a solaris
box, check the file group membership of the actual device.

we do this without any problems. BUT the servers in Question are Unix
(running netatalk or Pacers now defunct appletalk stuff) or running off
a SNAP server which we use smblient to backup.
What happens if you try and open the file with w2k - do you still get
the error?

Somewhat random question -- there *is* a tape in the drive when you run

Joshua has commented that there may be issues if there's no tape in the
drive, which is our case, as we'd like to do normally nightly backups
and use this as the archive to be moved to somewhere else and kept for
ever...
If this doesn't work I'll be back(tm)
