Are you sure you are running a recent fw on your DLT4k? My DLTs used to behave badly with early fw revisions. Check out http://www.quantum.com/am/service_support/downloads/software/dlt4000.htm You can upgrade it by tape or use my software for updating the fw of SCSI devices on FreeBSD. -Andre > > James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
