i need to erase a tape before i can back up my system. i do not have software in unix to erase a tape. can it be done using cpio ?

thank you motoslide! that did the trick.

does any one know how to eliminate a form feed? i am printing from unix (sco 5.0.6) to a remote printer (okidata 320) using facetwin. it prints fine but i get a form feed at the end of print. this is not a problem except when i need to print labels of less than 1 page length. i have tried...

Thank you. b

I am using sco OpenServer 5.0.6. The manual makes it sound like configuring a usb port sets it up as a hard drive. Is there a usb flash drive that is combatible with unix or is this like asking if there is a floppy disk that is compatible with unix?

Has anyone used usb flash memory as a backup medium? In talking to Kingston (one of the manufactures) they informed me that they do not support unix but do support linux and thought that they may be sufficiently similar to work. Thanks for whatever info you can impart. b

I have just loaded unix openserver 5.0.6 in a new box. when I create the tape drive (sony sdt-5200 scsi tape drive) using mkdev tape it gives the "idmkreg: error updating space.c file for Stp" it then relinks the kernel etc. normally but when i try to use the tape drive it is not listed. man...

is it a patch?

No. I don't know what that is. could you explain it to me?

I am setting up a new unix open server 5.0.6 install on a new super micro p4sca mother board system with an embedded intel pro/100b network interface adapter. after install I get error messages. hwconfig -h gives "eeE0 Bad EEPROM read. I also get "dlpid: Unable to open network adapter...

Thank you all for your help.

yes. the history is that i tried to move my old hard drive into a new upgraded box. ran into trouble with it and moved it back. had trouble with that and did a restore from an old back up to restore the / directory.

yes. now i get an error message "error incorrect SCO ISAM Runtime System installed:3" however by removing resolv.conf (actually doing a mv to resolv.conf.save) i am no longver getting the prc_sync error. It appears that all of these problems relate to the second nic card.

the second nic does not appear in hwconfig. it does appear in netconfig.
