HP-UX tar tape unreadable by SunOS

[Lyle Wiedeman]

Netbeings:

I have a tar tape created under HP-UX.  I want to read it onto a Sun
(Sun-4 SunOS 4.0). Tar gives me I/O errors.  Any suggestions as to tar
parameters to use or a platform other than HP which could read this tape
(I'm at a University, I might scare one up - but I don't know of any hp's)
would be deeply appreciated.  If it matters, it is a 1/4" cartridge tape
written in Japan, so it's hard to find out more details about its method
of creation.

Thanks in advance.
