Title:          ftpbackup utility: backup to/restore from ftp server
Version:        2.1
Entered-date:   15SEP97
Description:    This utility allows you to backup or restore filesystems
		or directories to/from a remote ftp server, _without_
		having to create an intermediate file first. This allows
		you to conveniantly backup systems without backup facilities.
		The remote pathname does not have to be a regular file -
		it may be the special device pathname of a tape drive or
		some other suitable device.
		Addtionally, this utility can be used to view the contents
		of remote tar.gz files without actually downloading them on
		your local disk. Other uses include the extraction of
		subsets of a remote tar archive etc.
		This flexibillity is achieved by piping to cpio, tar,
		gzip etc.
