Tip: Dont use Solstice BAckup - pay the SAME amount of money to Legato, and
get the latest version of Networker instead.  SB is just Legato Networker,
relabeled, and about one full version *behind*.  I had no problem running a
DLT 4700 with an Ultra 1 about a year ago, with the latest version of Networker.
