Re: dptutil help

oops, sorry, sent it before I finished...

How does it work in netbsd?  I have installed dpt as the driver, I've also 
installed iop.  In openbsd it handles I2O devices.  I'm wondering, besides 
dptutil, if there are any other drives or such that it may expect to be 
there?

anyway, thanks for the help.
Let me know.
