	Hello All,  I'm in trouble here . Any pointers gladly 
	appreciated .  Including where else to post this query . 

	a general user can get 'mt' to get status (...) once the
	tape is loaded .  But using 'mtx' on the same device
	illicits the below response .

sunny:jiml:~$ mtx -f /dev/rmt/0 status
mtx: Request Sense: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
mtx: READ ELEMENT STATUS Command Failed

	Here are the permissions of the special files in question .

sunny:root:/dev$ dir /dev/rmt/0
   2 lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          56 Dec 30 22:23 /dev/rmt/0 ->
../../devices/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/SUNW,isptwo@4/st@4,0:
sunny:root:/dev$ dir /devices/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/SUNW,isptwo@4/st@4,0:
   0 crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       33,136 May 18 10:46
/devices/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@1/SUNW,isptwo@4/st@4,0:

	I have added below a short 'truss' output while running the above
	command as a general user .  Anything else you may need please 
	just ask .		Tia, JimL
