I'm looking for a Macintosh network backup solution.  I have a 150M tape
and a 2.3G tape on a Sun SPARC 2, but no good way to dump Macs to either
tape.  I have MacDumper v3.2, but this version only dumps to disk, not
to tape, and has some other limitations.  Just checked rutgers.edu and
found that pub/src/macdump.tar.Z is older than the version I have, dating
from (mostly) July, 1989.  Got my version from a friend who no longer
works here, so I don't know the source but files are dated Sept. 1990
and Feb. 1991.  Is there a newer version somewhere?

What other solutions are there?  Public domain, CAP-based is preferable,
but I would consider proprietary solutions as well.

If you have the same problem and no solution, email me and I'll summarize
any suggestions I get.
