I am posting this on behalf of a co-worker, can anyone help him?

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
 - Wangtek 5525Es connected to a Adaptec 1540 Scsi adapter.
 - The DIBI2$DV.DAT file has DMA, IRQ and Port Address set
   the same as the host adapter board's setings.
 - Performing SBACKUP to the host server:
   - load TSA32.NLM
   - load SBACKUP.NLM - as soon as I select Wangtek Device
     Driver, I receive the error message: " unable to reserve
     IRQ 5   DMA channel 3h   I/O port 330h len 2 ".  Then I
     depress enter to continue and receive this one last
     error before SBACKUP abends " Error 0x2 initializing the
     DIBI driver. SBACKUP can't initialize the DIBI device
     driver.  Processing can't continue ".  Press enter to
     continue - abend???

               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No doubt you mean TSA312.NLM....

Do NOT select Wangtek as the device.  Select "DIBI-2 DAI Tape Driver" 
(DIBIDAI.NLM, I think it is).  Better still, edit the DIBI2$DV.DAT file so 
that this is the _only_ driver in it, that way no one will be tempted to 
select WangTek from the screen.  "WangTek" seems like the obvious choice, but 
that is the driver for some other WangTek device(s?), NOT the one for the 
5525ES.
