When I try and remore dump to another host I get an error when I enter 
the host name.

rdump 0uf /dev/nrst0 /        <===  Works (or would if there was a tape 
					drive attached)

rdump 0uf remotehost:/dev/nrst0 
          ^^^^^^^^^^  gets a "TCP_MAXSEG setsockopt: bad file description" error

Any ideas as to how to get a remote dump to work?
