>Looking for peoples comments on using dump as a backup utility. >Good? Bad? Alternatives? And what tape drives people have had good fortune >with. Been using dump for backups for years on a variety of unices and tape drives. Works just fine. On FreeBSD 3.0 I am using a Seagate 4mm SCSI DAT drive. I backup my 3.1 system over the network to the 3.0 system using rdump. Works just fine. I can say 'works just fine' because I have had the opportunity to restore from the backups I have made, both full volume and single file. The interactive restore is very nice. hal To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
