Grab mtx from http://mtx.sourceforge.net/
It uses /dev/passX devices to control the changer.
Keep in mind that the chg-mtx scrript in the Amanda source tree is
broken.
I don't know if it is already fixed in the latest 2.4.2 CVS - give it a
try.
You can get the latest 2.4.2 by using the following commands.
cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/amanda
login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/amanda
co -r amanda-242-branch amanda
Then install gmake and autoconf from /usr/ports and do the following (ar
about the following :).
MAKE=/usr/local/bin/gmake;export MAKE
GNUTAR=/usr/local/bin/tar;export GNUTAR
autoconf
./autogen
./configure --with-user=backup --with-group=backup
--with-gnutar=/usr/local/bin/tar \
--enable-shared --with-amandahosts
--with-smbclient=/usr/local/bin/smbclient \
--with-tape-device=/dev/nrsa0 --with-fqdn
gmake&&gmake install
If the script is broken - e-mail me - I'll send you the one I'm
currently using on FreeBSD backup server.
