scsi tape drive - debian package

[ross74@optusnet.com.au]

Hi all,

I recently attached a SCSI tape drive to my raid box running Debian.
It's a  SONY     Model: SDX-300C

I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction on how to get it 
working, backing up.
I had a look at Amanda, that looked very complicated for me !

Is there a simpler software package ?
Any good HOW-TO's lying about ?
I only want to backup files on this box, not across the network, they're all local 
files.

I'm pretty sure I'm halfway there as Debian can see the tape drive (see below)
