Note that the following is ok: tar cvf /dev/rst0 on FreeBSD tar xvf /dev/rst0 on FreeBSD I didn't try yet (will it work?) tar cvf /dev/rst8 on Sun tar xvf /dev/rst0 on FreeBSD As I only have the tape drive for one day, Can sommeone tell me a safe way, Thanks a lot. -------- -------- Philippe Charnier charnier@lirmm.fr LIRMM, 161 rue Ada, 34392 Montpellier cedex 5 -- France ------------------------------------------------------------------------
