Re: tar cannot open /dev/rmt/0mn
find /dev -type f
If it returns anything, particularly your omn file, then you have a regular file in your /dev directory. Get rid of it, it does not belong. Then find out what the device file truly is for your tape drive and specify that in your tar command.

Re: tar cannot open /dev/rmt/0mn
Dennis, let me apologize in advance for all my future imperfections as well as those past. Please bear with me.
For your enlightenment, I rarely even bother to look at attachments because they are generally posted as Word documents. Being a HP-UX bigot and a Windoze hater, I browse on hp-ux and am unable to open the vast majority of attachments.
