} at all. I have tried "ft0", "ft0a", "rft0", "rft0a", the "ft" command and

} did not see any answer.
You know 'ft' is a filter, don't you? You use it like this:
tar cvzf - / | ft "Full backup of root"
ft | tar tzf -
ft | tar xzf - /root/.cshrc
I get timeouts, too. Maybe you saw my message. I never got a reply
about them. The backups work...you just seem to get timouts while the tape
is positioning.
