Hi to all!

I'm trying to use Cygnus TAR 1.12 (with B19.1 DLL) to backup local files
to a remote tape device (as usual in UNIX environment):

tar cvf host:/dev/rmt/0m localdir

but TAR complains for RSH. I have the Denicomp RSH.EXE program (a very
good product for NT). Using an hex editor, I found that TAR looks for
RSH in /usr/ucb directory; therefore, I put RSH in such path.

So TAR starts but it hangs immediately.
On the remote HP-UX host, I can see a 'rmt' process.

Suggestions? Ideas?

Bye from Italy.
