Hi. I need some help on a PC based XENIX system running version 2.3.
I am trying to relocate a tar file that is on the hard disk out to
a set of floppies.  I have tried things like   tar xf FILE | (tar cv2 -)
and other combinations of that command with no luck. Does anyone know
the right sequence to initiate this ?

Thanks,
