Subject:   Problem w/dump & Archive (Conner) Python tape drives

I am having problems trying to run dump to either of my Archive
Python DAT tape drives (one is an autoloader, the other not).
Right at the time dump claims to be dumping the directories dump
goes into an infinite wait.  If I cancel (via Cntl-C) the dump
command the system will eventually require rebooting do to (false?)
errors on the disk drive (which is on a different NCR 810 SCSI
controller).

I have tried this with both of my tape drives and with both an NCR
810 adapter and an Adaptec 2940 adapter with the same results.

Writing to/reading from the drives with tar and/or team works fine.

The system is a 166MHz Pentium with a Triton 2 MB running -current
(as of 6/20).  Is anybody out there able to get dump to work with
these tape drives (mine are both DDS-2 [4/8gb] drives)?

Thanks,
