It ought to be possible to use the installp or updatep commands to load
products from a tape located on a remote machine, but we can't seem to
get it to work, and TFM is not explicit on this.  Has anyone got these
commands to work this way?

Our configuration: RS/6000 320 AIX3.1 3003. 
The tape is on a networked 320 with tape drive.
