To all you tar gurus out there, I have a question.
On box A (192.168.0.2) I have data that badly needs backing up. On box B
(192.168.0.9) I have a tape drive.
Can I use tar, over ssh, to back up box A to the tape on B?
Typically I just `tar -cvzf file.tar.gz directory` I've never used a
tape drive locally, much less remotely, so I'm comparitavely clue-free
right now.
The man page is rather useless, and info pages have never failed to
boggle me.
