- backup.tar
- A program to handle running backups. It reads a configuration

- labeling tapes to be sure the right tape is used, and multiple
- sets of dump tapes. Understands how to use remote tape drives.
- It currently runs on 4.3BSD, Gould UTX/2.0, and SunOS 3.4. It
- would take a LOT of work to make it run under System V unless
- your System V has Berkeley pseudo-ttys.
