Subject: wormdat 1.1 - a tool to manipulate WanDAT 2000 DAT tapes as WORM drives

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


I just uploaded wormdat 1.1 to the incoming directory on
ftp.redhat.com.  There is a source RPM and an i386 RPM (compiled for
Redhat 5.0).

A couple paragraphs from the README are attached.  The software should
not be difficult to port to other SCSI DAT drives.

This is wormdat, an NFS server that makes a WangDAT 2000 DAT tape
drive look something like a WORM (write once read many) disk drive.
It is written in C++, and was developed under ESIX SVR4/386 (4.0.3A)
using gcc 2.5.8, then ported to RedHat linux 4.2 (currently 5.0) using
egcs.

Included is:

- - the NFS server
- - a program to control the NFS server's operation
- - a set of programs to access the features of WangDAT 2000 tape drives
- - a C++ class library to access WangDAT 2000 features
- - a tool to generate class libraries for manipulation of arbitrary
  SCSI data structures
