Of course you will need a version of rrestore too, since somehow I cannot read my dump tapes on any other machines than the hp's! [The hp supplied version of dump also makes tapes unusable on other machines, so I suspect there is something different in the filesystem/ inode data structures] If anybody else is interested I can put my patches against the 4.3 dump/restore for anonymous ftp somewhere. [I think the dump/restore sources have not been cleared from berkeley] christos -- _____________________________________________________________________ | ARPA: christos@ee.cornell.edu | | UUCP: {cmc12,shasta,uw-beaver,rochester}!cornell!tesla!christos | ---------------------------------------------------------------------
