For the first, I'm not coming from the Mac world, and therefore I've no
idea to solve my problem.
Perhaps anyone can help me.

I want to backup our Mac's to the streamer tapes or exabytes of our SUN
unix network. I don't want to ftp all the files from Mac to a disk of a
SUN. I want to dump directly to streamer. 

I've the following instrumentation:

Macintosh's connected through LocalTalk.
SUN's connected through ethernet.
PC's with Ethernet card's running PC-NFS and Lifeline.

The LocalTalk Net and the Ethernet are connected by the use of a
Ungermann & Bass AccessOne mactalk card, which seems to be nearly the
same, as a FastPath.

I'm running CAP and UAB software on a SUN to access the LocalTalk
printers from unix.

Is there any software which allows me to do the same, as I do with
PC-NFS and LifeLine (tar from PC to SUN-tape).
I'm looking for any software, public domain, shareware, commercial etc.
The best perhaps would be a Mac-NFS.

Thanks in advance.
Please e-mail -f possible, because I'm not reading this group normally.
