Hello all,
I have been using ssh-2.2.0 to do system backups, but am running into
problemswith multiple tape archives. The problem is that it does not
prompt me to change tapes. Can anyone recommend a way around this?
Here is the command I am presently using:
tar -cvf - stuff | \
su someusr -c '/usr/local/bin/ssh foo.bar.edu "(dd
of=/dev/rmt/tps0d6nrv)"'
As I implied, this command works perfectly fine, it just doesn't prompt at
the end of the tape.
A few notes:
- I have tried setting the blocksize, but something about tar on these
SGIs prevents it from working properly.
- I do know about the "-l" option in ssh, but for some reason it
doesn't behave properly here, but using "su" works fine.
Thanks,
Gary
