Legato Networker, Conner 4326NP DAT

Folks,
        Two questions that are related I hope you can help me out with.

1. I'm using the single server Networker package that came with OSF 3.2,
however since the server is known in DNS by both Empire.Net and
RedDragon.Empire.Net it can't seem to sync on being both server and
client with the same address. One is a CNAME for the other but Legato
thinks it's a different machine and fails the backup. Any ideas on what
to do with this?

Does anyone have a rough price for the extra client paks?


2. The DAT drive I'm using, the Conner 4326NP seems to only work
correctly when I use /dev/rmt0a as a device. The /dev/rmt0h just gives
me a tape write error, though I can get a status and rewind the tape
using that device. I have the following in my cam_data.c file:

/* Conner CS4000+ RDAT drive */
{"ARCHIVE Python", 14, DEV_TLZ06, (ALL_DTYPE_SEQUENTIAL << DTYPE_SHFT) |
SZ_RDAT_CLASS,
  (struct pt_info *)ccmn_null_sizes, SZ_NO_BLK, (DEC_MAX_REC - 1),
  &tlz06_dens, NO_MODE_TAB, SZ_NO_FLAGS,
  NO_OPT_CMDS, SZ_READY_DEF, SZ_NO_QUE, DD_REQSNS_VAL | DD_INQ_VAL,
  36, 64
},

Can anyone see a flaw in the above entry? The fax I got from Conner
might have been faulty.




Thanks in advance for any help..

Happy Holidays!
