Does anyone know how to get the cygwin tar command on Win2k to recognize
tapes made on a UNIX workstation using the UNIX tar command?   tar
commands in cygwin on a tape made on UNIX yield the following message:

tar:  /dev/nt0: Cannot read: Permission denied
tar:  At beginning of tape, quitting now
tar:  Error is not recoverable: exiting now

thanks,
stephen
