To whom it may concern;

        According to the cygwin user's guide, tape drive devices
        are mapped to /dev... or /device...  .  Shouldn't you be able
        to see these directories from a cygwin window under the
        /  directory ?  If so, is it because I did not install all of cygwin
        at the time of installation ?   On my Windows 2000 host in a
        cygwin window, I need to be able to perform a tar command
        in the form:  tar cvf  /dev...(for tape device)  filename.

        Any help in resloving this issue is most appreciated !
