remote

[Karina Diaco]

I need to use the GNU tar but the tape is in a remote machine.  I have the 
following script:

rsh explor38 /usr/bin/mt -f /dev/rmt/0 rew
/usr/local/bin/tar cvfb - 20 -P /data08/conf | rsh explor38 dd of=/dev/rmt/0 
obs=20b 
/usr/local/bin/tar uvfb - 20 -P /data04/ow_bck | rsh explor38 dd of=/dev/rmt/0 
obs=20b   


When I am running the last line I got this error message:

/usr/local/bin/tar: Options  -Aru are incompatible with  -f -  
Try  /usr/local/bin/tar --help 

When I make the backup localy I have no problems

/usr/local/bin/tar cvf /dev/rmt/0 -P /data08/conf
/usr/local/bin/tar uvf /dev/rmt/0 -P /data04/conf
Am I doing something wrong??
