I am looking for a backup routine with the following characteristics:

1)  It must backup to multiple floppies (the systems have *no*
	tape drives (not my idea...)).

2)  It must handle files that are larger than a single backup volume.

3)  It should provide a table of contents on the first volume of the
	backup set so that disk shuffling is minimized.

4)  It must be cheap/free to the Federal Govt.

5)  Runs on a SparcStation II (sort of) with SunOS 4.1.1.

6)  An OpenWindows interface...

I could of course hack such a thing myself but if the hacking is
already done, I should steal it.
