Hello friends. I have another question concerning TAR backups. So, I'm using scripts to backup batches of directories full of image sequences. A typical line of the script looks like: tar cvf /dev/nrsa0 imagesequencedir The frames always write to tape out of order. How can I force the files to write in alphanumeric order without having to feed the filenames to tar with a text file? -- David Smithson - Systems Administrator Custom Film Effects To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
