I am testing our backups that I am currently running in cron "cbackup" on our SCO Unix box. I am having problems trying to retore 1 file to another location using cpio. I can list the files on the backup but not having any luck restoring a particular file and putting it in a /tmp directory. This is what I have tried:

$ cpio -iBcdkmuv &quot;pattern1&quot; /tmp/restore < device

Nothing is in /tmp/restore directory?? What am I doing wrong?

Help!!! and Thanks...
