This is so users of PCs can keep their own backup tapes without having to "arc" or "lharc" their filesystems to a temporary area on the UNIX machine and then "tar" this archive to the cartridge. thanks in advance for any info, gerry -- gerry pratt -- workstation support -- university of keele email: gerry@seq1.keele.ac.uk * tel: 0782 621111 x 3290 "these opinions are mine, mine, mine....ALL MINE I TELL YOU!"
