There is no TSM client for OpenBSD. I wouldn't recommend running one under any emulation mode. Should you happen to run into problems, you're SOL because IBM will say that it's not supported and you can't fix it yourself since it's closed source. I think the most easy (and safe) solution is to install a TSM client on a supported platform on another machine. Use tar/dump/whatever on the OpenBSD machine, and store the resulting files on the machine with the TSM client on it. Regards, -- Jurjen Oskam
