Hello Everyone,

now i backup my machine over the network to my dat tape and it works very well :-)

ufsdump -0ful ponti:/dev/nrst0 /dev/share

now I want to rewind or forward my tape and i have tried 2 ways but no one fits for me

mt -f ponti:/dev/rst0 rewind
ponti:/dev/rst0: No such file or directory (it's not working)

ufsrestore -fio ponti:/dev/rst0
Rewinding tape and eject this tape :-(

Does there exist any other way to rewind or forward this dat tape without ejecting ?

for any help i'm happy
best regards
Maurizio
