First off, heres a <plug alert>:

ORBiT's Backup+ has supported DLTs for quite some time. Visit
http://www.orbitsw.com for a whitepaper on DLT.

HP is providing DLT support and is working with us to make sure that
support will be universal (thanks HP).

Turns out that I think there is a patch to the patch under construction
in the labs. I don't know if it is yet available as we just finished
beta testing the 5.0 version a week or so ago. Try contacting the RC and
see whether or not the DLT patch for 5.5 is now available.
