Summary: I need a backup database program

I have a friend who just asked me for advice on a program to manage a Tecmar
60 Meg tape backup unit. What he wants is an online database, so he can look 
up on which volume he has a specific file. The application is for backup 
of a LAN of 386/20's, specifically archiving the server's 300 meg disk.
He would like the program to have some type of version control, so for each
file, (Drawing; this is CAD) He should be able to have one copy of the 
latest version on tape at a time.

I will summarize reviews to the net, so please email me responses.

Thanks,  Quentin Fennessy
