Thomas - I got all this to work finally. Trick was to get the CVS
version of chg-zd-mtx and hack it a little. Our ADIC/mtx/mt combo returns
different messages depending on status, so I had to make those changes.
The problem with "slot 19 gives slot 2" was that the case statement in the
script (/bin/sh style) read [$firstslot-$lastslot]) which is not going to
regexp match tape "22". It was fixed in the latest version.
Thanks to all!
