Hello!

I've got a HP 9000 box with a DDS drive.  I want to use this to back up
my Linux and FreeBSD systems across the LAN.  Mounting the other systems
through NFS would seem to cause problems with the uid/gid's when doing a tar
(is this right?)

Is there some kind of client I can run on the other machines so they
can back up onto the HP machine?

thanks,
