SCO UNIX V.3.2.1 offers backup/restore service through sysadmsh.  I find this
inadequate for my b/r needs.  Mainly, I object to the fact that only one file
system can be allocated per tape.  I have 4 servers to backup!  With 150MB
cartridges, I'll soon need another lab just to store tapes.

Can anyone recommend a good backup/restore program at reasonable cost.
I require scheduling, multi-tape prompting, multiple file services per tape,
full and incremental range, and NFS support (which is probably a given).
