I would like to use one tape for multiple incremental (or full) backups for several relatively small file systems. I need to be able to retrieve earlier versions on the same tape, if necessary. What is there tat does this? I know that you can DUMP to a tape more than once, if you skip past the previous records, but this rules out doing the backups automatically. Thanks in advance. Mail replies will be summarized. Matthew Lewis Network Administrator OOC Project, Univ. of Amsterdam
