cpio

Does cpio copy symbolic links by default or do I have to use the k option?
Will the following command copy the symbolic links?

  find . -print | cpio -ov -O/dev/rmt0h

Or do I need something like:

  find . -print | cpio -okv -O/dev/rmt0h

Or is there a better command to copy the current directory, all
subdirectories, and symbolic links to a tape?

Thanks
