I'm not sure I can, you see: in fixing read, my original failed execution
now works. It was a write, backspace, read, write - where the second write
fails. Is it possible that calling:
rc = ioctl (fh, MTIOCTOP, (char*)&opblk);
simply resets the error (generated by the old read() routine) and that's why
I thought it needed it?
Thanks for fixing the main issue, your support is very good and welcome!
Jason.
