You tried to rewind a tape changer? I'm surprised it didn't stick its
tongue out at you and drop all the tapes on the floor. :-)
You might grab:
ftp://gandalf.cc.purdue.edu/pub/amanda/atl_op
That's a little test program I use to exercise my ATL robot through the
sst interface. After you chmod +x it, try these things:
atl_op -h # to see the help message
atl_op -f /dev/rsst1 -v inquiry
But there are other problems you need to look at first ...

Ummm, that would seem to be a very bad thing. You're talking to a disk
drive, not your changer. :-)
That, in turn, implies /dev/rsst1 is not pointing where you want it to.
Were any other /dev/rsst* devices created? What does rsst1 point to?
What do you get if you do this:
find /devices -name 'sst*'
What did the system reboot say (e.g. /var/adm/messages) when it scanned
the devices, in particular about your changer or the sst devices?
