I'm not sure what Netware might have for remote back-up, but the usual
utility in TCP/IP packages is tar. Tar uses the Berkeley UNIX command
rmt to back up files to tape. Both our PC/TCP and Sun's option package,
LifeLine, have implementations of tar. I'm sure other TCP/IP packages
do, as well. Confirmations, anybody?
