I sent this over a week ago.  Has anyone seen it?  Can anyone help.  Please respond either way.
Thanks
GB

I'm using MKS toolkit on a Windows 3.1 system and an 8mm tape backup system.
I am only slightly versed in Unix and I'm looking for a quick solution to this:

$ cpio -icvdum -C 63488 -I /dev/mtt3 /cadfiles/*.*

This command works with copying data from tape drive device mtt3 to the c:\ drive.  I would like the syntax to copy the files to my d:\drive.
I tried the -O character but my placement seems to be wrong.  Please help.
Thanks,
George
