Hi Folks:

I am trying to find the procedure for restoring files from a mksysb. I don't want to restore the entire image, just some /etc/security files....?

Thanks,

Try this...

cd /tmp # if in root directory, you'll overwrite
tctl -f /dev/rmt0 rewind
restore -s4 -xdqf /dev/rmt0.1 ./etc/security/environ

But substitute the file name you really want.
