List,
Thanks for all the replies. The original question is found below.
Q1) The overwhelming response was a bad tape in my tape drive or the tape
drive needed to be cleaned. I cleaned the tape drive AND replaced the
tape. We have not had any other problems.
Q2) We have not fixed the second problem as of yet. I did not recognize
one of the addresses and was concerned that possibly someone had tried to
break in. After I sent the note some one told me these id's belonged to
the same person. The responses I received on this one were, that I should
check the /etc/hosts or NIS+ database for proper entries.
Thanks again,
Calvin

List,
I just noticed these sets of errors on our SUN 690 Solaris 2.5 ( using
NIS+).
Jun 23 03:36:38 tnkrhelp unix: WARNING:

Are we having hard disk problems or is this even anything to be concerned
about?

mismatch: valid address != unknown address
Jun 23 15:02:24 tnkrhelp in.telnetd[25311]: warning: host name/name
mismatch: valid address != unknown address
I have substituted 'valid address' and 'unknown address' for what is in the
message file. Where would this mismatch occur?
Thanks - Will Summarize
