I need to chnage the mode on the tape drive. Currently it is: crw-rw----
I want it to be: crw-rw-rw-

Thank you
 
You can change the permissions with chmod in one of the following ways:

# chmod 666 /dev/rStp0
# chmod o+rw /dev/rStp0

(This is assuming rStp0 to be your tape device. Modify as needed).
 
Thank you, that works. I just didn't know because it had the 'c' in front of it, hadn't done one like that before.
