Subject: tar question...solved

Many thanks to Don and  Corinna for their help.

For those that could encounter the same problem, the solution is this:
I hadn't understood that NT numbers the tapes drives according to their
encounter rank (0 for the first, 1 for the second...) and not according
to their SCSI LUN.

So if you've got one tape drive, it's device path will be //./tape0,
independently of its SCSI LUN.

Now everything works.

Cheers,


Jean-Hugues Zorio
