Does anyone know if it is possible to access a SCSI tape drive from
within Cygwin.
I found a thread regardiing this in the archives but it degenerated into
a discussion of the virtues of being multi-lingual without telling me
what I need to know.
I have a Sony DAT Drive. It is set up as follows
BUS = 0
PORT = 1
LUN = 0
ID = 3
I am not sure what device this would be under Cygwin (assuming that
there is one)
I also have a generic ASPI driver installed for the tape as well ( I
think ).
The SCSI controller is an Advansys ABP-9X0.
I have a requirement to read a single (very large) file from a tape
written on a unix system using dd and a 512 byte block size. I can't
seem to find any way to do this under NT so am looking to Cygwin as an
alternative.
