I have a mac IIci (1.5.2) and a scsi dat drive. I would like to tar to the drive 
from another UNIX computer on my network (mac OSX) any ideas?

Tar locally seems to work.

I have tried:

[localhost:/] landrron% tar -vfL ronlandrus@igor:/dev/st0 testtar
-rw-r--r--  1 landrron admin       1807 Aug 22 16:41 testtar
tar: WARNING! These patterns were not matched:
ronlandrus@igor:/dev/st0
[localhost:/] landrron% tar -vf ronlandrus@igor:/dev/st0 testtar
tar: Failed open to read on ronlandrus@igor:/dev/st0 <No such file or 
directory>
[localhost:/] landrron%

and:

[localhost:/] landrron% tar -cvL ronlandrus@igor:/dev/st0 testtar
tar: Failed open to write on /dev/nrst0 <Permission denied>
[localhost:/] landrron% tar -cvL root@igor:/dev/st0 testtar
tar: Failed open to write on /dev/nrst0 <Permission denied>
[localhost:/] landrron% rsh ronlandrus@igor:date

[localhost:/] landrron% rsh ronlandrus@igor date
Permission denied.
[localhost:/] landrron% rsh root@igor date

No luck.
