The "right" way on redhat to start and stop services is "/sbin/service $NAME restart", e.g. "/sbin/service xinetd restart". > | DUMP: 61.44% done at 5926 kB/s, finished in 0:40 > | DUMP: 68.50% done at 6135 kB/s, finished in 0:32 > | DUMP: 75.54% done at 6314 kB/s, finished in 0:24 That's a dump bug.
