Hi, Is it possible to restore a local filesystem such as / or /usr from a remote tape? I'm assuming that one would need to be in single user mode or boot from fixit floppy/CD. So I'm trying to test accessing the remote tape from both single user mode or fixit with no luck. I can get the LAN up, and the two machines can ping each other. Things look like they fail when restore trys to run rsh. Before I guess at modifying the fixit floppy or the script in the handbook to try to allow for a remote tape restore, I'd like to know what others have done.
