I have a number of freebsd boxes up that I've been backing up over the wire
using samba shares and nt backup software.  In my ignorance as a newbie I
didn't know if sticking a tape drive in the servers and using tar to
perform backups would catch open files.  In my somewhat lesser ignorant
state as a familiar freebsd guy, I still don't know so I figured I'd ask.
Will open files (web pages, etc) be backed up to tape using tar?
