BOB,

I got past the initial problem of being able to transfer files to the tape
drive /mt0 by makeing a few system calls. But, now I need to somehow be able to
see the file after I transferred it using . I believe the way to do
it is to update the index file. I looked at the the files in the /h0/sys dir
(backup_date etc.) but I am still not sure what needs to be updated and how to
go about it using "C" where it will be transparent to the user. I tried
manually updating one of the log files but when  read in the index
file it read in a different date than the file I changed.

I know the file is there I did a  but i am not sure how frestore is
supposed to tell what segment I wrote it to.

I would appreciate any hints or help anyone could contribute to the cause!

Thanks again
Rob
