OK. This might seem to be a newbie question...and it is. I was recently trying to un-tar a file and when I ran tar it insisted that : ' cannot open rst0 /dev/rst0/ not configured ' I read the entire man page on tar and it gave no such indication that this device had to be configured. I've used tar under Linux (I now know this is a bad word! ;-) and it gave no such complaints. What the ##@! is going on with this darned thing? Justin.
