Hello,

By accident I erased a file at work and I need to restore it from a backup tape. My manager says I will have to use the mt command with the fsf option to look through the tape but I am confuzed. I did a restore -t [device path] to get a listing of the tape. This is taking a long time.

If I sound confused it is because I am. I just need to restore a file from a backup tape. I know the name of the file. Can someone tell me the fastest/easiest way to go about this?
