I'd first like to thank everyone for their help with my SCSI
tape question. Turns out the drive was working fine the whole
time... here's the deal:

I'm using Amanda 2.3.0 to backup the FreeBSD servers on my
WAN. Things stopped working at one point so I thought the
drive had died on me... ruled that out after a while.

So... I started backing up each system individually (by
modifying the 'disklist' file and restarting the amanda
dump. A pattern quickly emerged (OK, it took hours, but...)

Whenever I use Amanda to backup another server on my 
LAN the backup server locks up. No problems backing up
servers from the WAN.

Anyone have a guess on this one?
