New DLT tape drive on Sun E450- I/O Errors

I attached a new external DLT to my E450 and rebotted with boot -r. When I enter mt status it shows me the DLT, but if I try to write to the tape I get an I/O error. What else do I need to do to configure the tape drive? This server also has an internal DAT drive. Here is an example session

Re: odd problem setting up amanda on Linux

Hi Harlan! This was exactly right! The firewalls were blocking the packets. I disabled them, and things now work correctly. Configuring the Linux firewalls to allow Amanda and Samba would be the next step. I'll ask Red Hat about that -- it didn't look obvious how to do that... Thanks! Read
