Default ontape failed

hi,
i've made a level 0 archive using ontyape on a remote filesystem
TAPEDEV host2:/backup/SL0

when i try to restore the archive on host1 with ontape -p (for HDR) i've got
an error message :

Please mount tape 1 on host2:/backup/SL0 and press Return to continue ...
Physical restore failed - function read archive backup failed code -1 errno
0

i checked perms, owner, connection all is fine.
if i launch ontape -p on host2 with the same archive it works fine.

finderr -1 gives me => not owner

i don't understand what's wrong...

to be complete, host1 is an Aix 5.3 with IDS 9.40 64 bits
and host2 is a RH7.3 with IDS 9.40 32 bits

host1 and host2 are two completely different hardware platform.
This won't work. HDR requires both host to be of same hardware,
OS etc. I think ontape requires at least same vendor like AIX,
Solaris.
