This morning I recieved an email from one of our system manager and =20 told me that the backup has failed with the following message: tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format This happends when the following command is used: # tar -tf /dev/sa0 It will show you the first 10 files and then exits. After searching the MARC list, I found the following post: http://marc.info/?l=3Dfreebsd-questions&m=3D117442965732289 Apparently nobody has (yet) replied to it. After reading a few posts =20 about similar problems http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D111236 I'd updated the libarchive (lib/libarchive) and tar (usr.bin/tar) in =20 the source tree to RELENG_6 and recompiled both, but still encounter =20 same problem. Anybody any idea how to fix this? Kind regards, Robin Gruyters Network and Security Engineer Yirdis B.V.
