Simon,

I looked under ftp://ftp.simon-shapiro.org/crash/tools and noted a number of FreeBSD binaries with names like "dtp_dm". Could this per chance be the native mgmt software that Tom is talking about below?

If so, do I need a /dev/dpt? How can a make one (/dev/MAKEDEV doesn't know anything about it, of course)?

I'm running 2.2.6 at the moment, BTW.

Thanks much,

Charles

Having noticed the beta version of the DPT storage management software for BSDI is infact the SCO binary running under emulation. I was wondering if anyone had tried to get this working under FreeBSD?

Well, the Unix Storage Manager apparently works by reading and writing commands to /dev/dpt If you check the archives, Simon posted a way you could send a command to /dev/dtp, and then use cat to display the result. I don't know if the driver has a complete command interface though.

I understand that Simon is working on a native FreeBSD storage manager. DPT has apparently given him the code to do the port.
