AAAREAD.ME


	The procedures and command files within this directory are aimed at 
the novice system manager, but should also be extremely useful to the more 
experienced system manager.  Included are a simple set of command files for 
archiving and dearchiving user files.  The system allows the general user 
to free up disk quota's by saving and retrieving files from a general 
archive space.  The system manager then uses simple backup routines to 
archive and dearchive files to/from magnetic tape.  The system has been 
designed to greatly reduce the time spent providing archiving services to 
the general user.  The DCL command files are described in detail.
