We need to back up some _very_ large disks and it takes way to long
using /etc/backup (like 12+ hours - we only have cart' tape
drives...).  I am trying remshing to a dd on a BSD system, but that is
slow and won't enable us to use multi-volume backups.

What I am looking for is something like RDUMP, or any kind of _fast_
backup. Basicly something that would preserve multi-volumes and would
not take more than a few hours to backup 500MB.

Any hints, clues, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail to
me and I'll sumarize to the net if there is demand.

ADVthanksANCE!
