Hi Tim,

  There is an application note for the DDS drive which I'm sure your
  support people can get for you, otherwise mail me and I'll get one
  sent to you. 

  In the mean time here are the major/minor numbers:

crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       54 0x0e0102 Jul 23 10:22 /dev/rmt/1
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       54 0x0e0103 Jul 23 10:22 /dev/rmt/1.norew
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       54 0x0e0202 Jul 26 08:29 /dev/rmt/2
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     sys       54 0x0e0203 Jul 26 08:29 /dev/rmt/2.norew
