$Hi. I sorry for the mention of that world (ie NOVELL) but, I NEED urgently
$to setup a program to dobackups of NOVELL servers. The main part I am

$info about files like there ownership, access-rights etc. 

   We used a Mountain Tape Drive where I worked last summer to back up our
Novell SFT 2.15 system, and the software that came with it knows all about
the assorted nifty things that Novell built into their file system.  Or,
at least it does when writing the tape, so I imagine it gets it right when
you have to restore (after over half a year, the network was still working
fine).
