Hi,
I have an exabyte tape drive attached to a sparc running Linux 2.0.30.
I can use tar etc perfectly, but would like to use dump to backup
my server. the server is a PC running Linux and has no scsi controller
so moving the drive is out of the question.
I've tried the following, without much success:
server# dump 0f root@ws:/dev/nst0 /
all I get back is:
Permission denied.
TCP_MAXSEG setsockopt: Bad file number
rmt is on both machines so there should be no problem there.
Has anybody battled with this stuff?
grant
