This progam reads a VMS backuptape. The tape program is orginally written by John Douglas Carey and the pattern matching routine by some unknown on the net. The remote tape option use the rmtlib from mod.sources. A good way to archive remotetape access for users with only a local account is to create a "netwide" user tar and let the remote tape programs do suid to user tar. The program is tested on vax and sun. Sven-Ove Westberg Lulea University of Technology S-951 87 Lulea, Sweden UUCP: sow@luthcad.UUCP UUCP: {decvax,philabs,seismo}!mcvax!enea!luthcad!sow
