I've a Tandberg DLT VS80 tape drive on a WinXP, which is hooked to an ADAPTEC 29160 (160MB UltraWide SCSI) board. How to access viar tar the DLT drive? How to tell (GnuWin32)tar to use this device? - Thanks - WM
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The GnuWin32 port of tar cannot write directly to tape. One has to create first a tar or tar.gz archive, and then use standard MS-Windows commands (copy ?) to copy this file to tape.
