Re: [Networker] inquire shows //./Tape instead of //./Tape#

The EMC solution with the key of ibmtp2k3 pre-dates the Microsoft solution. At 
one point, there was no solution. Then IBM added it to their tape driver, then 
Microsoft generalized it and added it to all tape drivers. If you are using the 
IBM tape driver you can use the older solution, but I'd recommend using the 
windows solution since it will always work.
