I have two linux boxes connected by a TCP/IP network.
I have a SCSI tape drive connected internally to one box. 

Up to now to back up the other machine I have mounted its entire filesystem
via nfs, however it would be a neater solution (and one that might be made
to run unattended) if I could simply mount the tape drive as a network
drive to the machine that does not physically own it.

I am sure that the method of doing this is a simple one, but at present it
evades me.

Any suggestions/solutions gratefully received.
