NetWorker for Windows (last I checked) does not support the Windows
persistent binding methods.

Newer IBM tape drivers use persistent binding so they may show up as
//./Tape6553232 instead of //./Tape0. That is a good thing.

You should be using the directory "latest" on the ftp directory. If you
read
the release notes it states that the "latest" are supported and tested,
just
haven't gone through the official testing at microsoft. They aren't
beta.


ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/devdrvr/Windows/Win2003/Latest/

Take a look at the "IBMTape_W200x_Readme.txt". It was updated this week.

You said you are running Windows 2003 x64. If you are running itanium,
then
you would be using the IBMTape.i6_6193.zip, and if you have EMT64 you
would
be using the IBMTape.x64_6193.zip.
