Lines: 23 Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.3.91.960619031535.3691A-100000@tyger.inna.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: tyger.inna.net Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII I am nfs mounting remote partitions on the host with my tape drive for the purposes of backups. I was using rdump, but wanted to see if nfs mounting to dump would be faster. NFS is working fine, I can mount and unmount filesystems with no problems. Here's my problem: dump -0fB /dev/nrst0 4096000 /tygerusr DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Wed Jun 19 02:10:25 1996 DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch DUMP: Dumping tyger:/rusr (/tygerusr) to /dev/nrst0 DUMP: Cannot open tyger:/rusr The fstab entry for this fs is: tyger:/usr /tygerusr nfs ro,noauto - - I can change field 5 to 1 if necessary, but my immediate problem is dump insists on inserting the extraneous 'r' in front of usr. Is this a bug, or have I done something wrong. I get the same error with field 5 set to one also. Any help is greatly appreciated. Jamie Bowden Network Administrator, TBI, Ltd.
