- We have been handed a problem that must have been solved before. We are being
- asked to provide a plan for making a large number (anywhere from 50 to 500)
- copies of a set of QIC tapes, each containing several TAR archives. We can, of
- course, get two QIC drives on a single host and play dd games to duplicate each
- tape, but I'm sure there are less labor-intensive ways. Does anyone have a
- suggestion?
