Hi, thanks all for the help so far. Ok one more, for know :)

I need to make remote dumps from one server to another's tape drive.

Two servers, mycroft and tanstaafl, tanstaafl has a tape drive. I have
tried:

# dump -0u -b 64 -d 141000 -s 11500 -L mycroft_etc -f tanstaafl:/dev/nst0
/etc

on the mycroft server, but it gives me a "tanstaafl unknown host" and "login
to tanstaafl as root has failed".

I suppose a "server" side must be running on tanstaafl (the machine with the
tape drive) for remote servers to dump to its drive?

Thanks for anything, getting there slowly and surely.

Regards,
