Todd,

On my system (any version of solaris) /dev/rdsk/* devices are
links to /devices/pcisomething/somethingelse/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:h,raw for
some n >0 and h which is some alpha >= a.

Check the 'real' devices in the /dev/ tree.

At our site we have user=amanda group=sys for our amanda user
and where needed (more so on older OS than newer) have added
g+[r]w as needed.

Sorry - first cup of coffee, if confused write again and I'll
try to do it in english...
