Name : rmt
Version : 0.4b39
URL : http://dump.sourceforge.net
Summary : Provides certain programs with access to remote tape devices.
Description :
The rmt utility provides remote access to tape devices for programs
like dump (a filesystem backup program), restore (a program for
restoring files from a backup), and tar (an archiving program).
I'm not sure if a version is supplied with Fedora, but you can always grab
the upstream one at the above URL and build your own RPM. I've been using
that since my SunOS days in the late 80's. I just wish there was a Windows
port so I could back up to my tape drive on my Win2003 server.
