check this site:
http://taper.e-survey.net.au/It's the taper homepage. you'll find whatever you need.
If also happen to figure out how to perform a taper backup on command line properly, please let me know. i would like to configure the taper backup in a crontab for nightly backups. i know that sme server has flexbackup, but i still would like to know how to do this.
This is what I've tried so far, but the backup seems to produce a bunch of errors:
% taper -T s -a -c 1 -g
-t <title> -U <dir(s)><br /><br />-T = type: s=scsi<br />-a = append off<br />-c = compression: 1=default<br />-g = volume title<br />-t = archive title<br />-U = directories<br /><br />hope this helps.<br /><br />flee</div>
