That would be part of an 'archivehost' setup.  It may work but you'd
have to start the run from the web page and you can probably get
better performance from your tape drive if you pipe the output of
Backuppc_tarCreate through dd with some appropriate block size.  Or if
you have extra disk space, write intermediate tar files to some
holding space so you have a better chance of keeping the tape
streaming.
