I'm posting this for a friend. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

==============================================================================

Here's the scenario:

MacPlus and IBM PC XT connected via Apple Talk with TOPS networking software. 
The Mac has an HD20 hard disk published on the network as a single volume.  The
PC has the HD20 mounted as volume H:.  An ALLOY 1/4" tape backup is attached to
the PC running ALLOY Tip6 software.  

What I am trying to do is use the ALLOY tape backup to backup H:/*.* (i.e. the
HD20 over the network).  It works fine for a while but then stops before comp-
leting the backup.  The place where it stops is random.

Any ideas how I can make this work?
