	Does anyone know why Ultrix won't allow remote access to tape drives
other than rdump, etc?  We have a dept. in a real bind, since they don't have
the disk space available to use ris and moving the tape drive requires shutting
down the system - t a cost to researchers running long jobs.

	A related question.  Can one install from an NFS mounted CD ROM,
without having to go through ris?
