SUBJECT: Restoring backup off a DAT tape drive using cpio over the network.

       I have two systems, one HP Vectra 486 running SCO Unix and one
HP 370 Series 9000 running HP Unix. Does anyone know how to recover files
from a DAT tape drive across the network to the HP Vectra 486 using the 
cpio command. I would like to perform this command from the HP Vectra 486.
I do not want to copy files from the DAT tape drive to the HP 370 & then
to the HP Vectra 486. I would like to execute one command using cpio
from the HP Vectra 486 to recover files directly from the DAT tape drive
on the HP 370 and put them on back on the HP Vectra 486. If there are any
scripts available, please post a response or send mail directly to me.

Thanks, 
          Gregg        (Email: machovec at ucc386.uunet)
