Hi there,
I am setting up a freebsd machine to take care of a small office LAN.  So
far, I can use SAMBA to share freebsd filespace and the office printer and
CERN HTTPD proxying for internet access.  What I would like to do now is use
our syquest drive (parallel interface) to enable backups of data from the
pcs.  Using SAMBA I can read all of the files, so I was wanting to use tar
and/or gzip to write these files to the syquest drive using cron or some such.  

Using this particular device, the printer daisy chains on the back of it, so
if at all possible i would like to be able to still use the printer while i
am using the syquest.

I have looked through the mailing list archive, but the only mention of
syquest devices is the ez135 and this appears to be an ide or scsi device.

Regards
Craig
