Hi,

I work for a ISP and we are haveing trouble
with BSD/386 1.1

It is the DAT tape drive we use is giveing SCSI Errors.

sd0:scsi sense: Recoverd error: asc 0x18, ascq 0x1

and 

aha0: command timed out   (the backup died)

They seem to be completely at random on some occasions 
the backup works perfectly.

We are useing an intel box with a barracuda SCSI 1.5gig drive, a 
BusLogic scsi adapter. and have an active terminator terminating.

any sujestion would be great.
Thanks
