linux/unix tape drive & AMANDA

Trying to set up AMANDA on my linux machine, with the DDS-3 HP Tape drive. Am having problems, in my amanda.conf it doesn't like /dev/st0 or /dev/st0nr and I need to have it as non rewinding, is there another command/params i can give it for the tape drive to be non rewinding? I'm trying to use my linux box as the backup server for my 2 solaris boxes.

Thanks, kym

Have you tried /dev/nst0 ? See Linux hw FAQ at Soti.org
