tar & CGI

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
I'm developing a perl CGI as a front-end to tar. I'd like to use it as an 
interface for tape backups on my server, but I've got several questions that 
I hope someone can answer to:
1) how to give root permissions to my CGI, thus it can read all data it must 
backup?
2) since I'd like to use tar in multi volume mode (-M), how to catch within 
the CGI the end of a tape, so to require to the user a new tape and to 
restart tar on the new tape?
3) how to keep a trace of all data contained in each tape? In other words, how 
to save the output of tar depending on the tape number?

Any suggestions are accepted.

Thanks,
Luca
