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.
