What are the settings for the OnStream ADR-50 with a 50 gig tape?

I currently have in my amanda.conf file

tapetype ADR-50         # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below)
labelstr "^DailySet1[0-9][0-9]*$"       # label constraint regex: all
tapes must match

define tapetype ADR-50 {
    comment "OnStream ADR-50"
    length 14700 mbytes
    filemark 1024 kbytes
    speed 1024 kbytes
}

amlabel gives this output:

bash$ /usr/sbin/amlabel DailySet1 DailySet101
rewinding, reading label, reading label: Input/output error
rewinding, writing label DailySet101, done.


and amcheck gives this error:

bash$ /usr/sbin/amcheck DailySet1
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
/var/tmp: 2174012 KB disk space available, that's plenty.
ERROR: /dev/nst0: reading label: Input/output error.
       (expecting a new tape)
NOTE: skipping tape-writable test.
Server check took 618.456 seconds.
protocol packet receive: Connection refused
protocol packet receive: Connection refused

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
ERROR: ash: couldn't resolve hostname
WARNING: memex: selfcheck request timed out.  Host down?
Client check: 2 hosts checked in 29.349 seconds, 2 problems found.


I know that there are configuration issues that have to do with more
than hardware right now but, if the hardware doesn't work then... well
it doesn't matter if the configuration is correct.

the protocol errors are strange though as I have put the amandad and
related files in the inetd.conf and have restarted the inet services.

Thanks in Advance
