Can anybody tell me what the purpose and "secret" of the default mount
entries is/are:
\\.\tape0: /dev/st0
I would like to work with my scsi tape drive "/dev/st0" from the likes of "tar"
"afio" "dd" etc.
What's the secret to accessing those devices? Is it environment settings?
Which ones - what's the syntax.
Many thanks,
Urs
