This is version 1.4 of my small extension to samba that allows PC shares to be backed up directly to a UNIX tape. It only has been tested under Solaris 2.3, Linux 1.1.59 and DG/UX 5.4r3.10 with version 1.9.13 of samba. See the file INSTALL for installation instructions, and the man page and NOTES file for some basic usage. Please let me know if you have any problems getting it to work under your flavour of Unix. This is only (yet another) intermediate version of sambatar. This version also comes with an extra gift, zen.bas, written in microsoft qbasic by a colleague. It is (apparently) based on a 70s British sci-fi series known as Blake's 7. If you have any questions about this program, or any suggestions (e.g. what about servillan.bas ?), feel free to mail the author (of zen.bas) greenm@lilhd.logica.com.
