I've installed Cygwin on NT4 in order to use tar to do some backups.  I've
got a 15/30 Gb DLT tape drive hooked up to the machine.

My understanding is that tar will need to refer to the tape device -- yet
there is no /dev directory.  Is this common?  Is there some other step I
need to take to generate the proper /dev files for my tape drive, etc?

Please advise.
