    Until Masscomp (oops, Concurrent (:-) permits dump to remote
devices, I can recommend gnutar.  It has been used to do full and
incremental backups to anything from 1/4" carts, 1/2" tape, to 8mm
Video, on a number of client machines.  It comes with '/etc/rmt' - a
network driver for manipulating remote tapes via a protocol like SMTP -
that is the part that has to be installed on (should come with BSD
systems) the machine you wish to borrow the tape from.  If you are doing
backups as root, the syntax permits you to access the remote drive as
"user@host:/dev/rst0" so you don't need rsh privileges as root on the
remote machine.  Gnutar is available from direct from the Gnu project, 
as well as uunet.uu.net and other archive sites.  Send me mail
if you can't get a copy - I'll be glad to do what ever I can to help.
