Hi,
I have a tape device problem. I'm running on Win2K pro SP1 + all M$
recommended patches and I've just installed the latest Cygwin.
I mounted the DAT drive with
mount -s -f -b //./tape0 /dev/nst0
and it seems to be working, I can write to a DAT and read the data back.
BUT, if I put in a tape I wrote on Linux I get the following:
$ cat /dev/nst0
cat: /dev/nst0: Permission denied
Why is this, and how can I read the DAT tape.
Thanks in advance.
