Message-ID: <6685@saturn.ucsc.edu> Date: 15 Mar 89 04:32:34 GMT Sender: usenet@saturn.ucsc.edu Reply-To: haynes@ucscc.UCSC.EDU (Jim Haynes) Distribution: na Organization: California State Home for the Weird Lines: 13 Some time ago there was posted a remote tape library and hacks to tar.c and dd.c to use it. It allows a file argument of the forms host:dev or host.user:dev in tar and dd commands to use a tape drive on a remote machine. Has anybody modified the rmtlib.c to take the more modern form user@host:dev ? haynes@ucscc.ucsc.edu haynes@ucscc.bitnet ..ucbvax!ucscc!haynes "Any clod can have the facts, but having opinions is an Art."
