Received message of "Protocol to remote tape server botched (in rmtgets)" while doing a ufsdump. Any ideas where to start looking for the problem. Thanks

Both boxes are using solaris. It recognizes and will work when referencing the tape server name on the internal network but not the name or ip address of the tape server on our main net. Both the ip and name for the main net tape server as well as the address and name for the internal network are listed in the hosts and .rhosts file. One gets through the other doesn't.

Thanks
