Thanks for the info Horst! I did not know that... good thing that our
servers are running GNU/Linux *grin*... most of our clients are running
Solaris 8, and that is where I did my testing... running on a SunFire
2900, it took about one hour to build the 10 GIG tarball, another hour
to copy it from the local scratch space into AFS, and another hour to do
the 'tar tvf' to test it out... whew.
