However, when I do restore -i and look at the tape, I see only the last file system that was dumped. Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: 1. Backup all file systems on one tape. 2. Be able to restore any file or directory from the backups to any file system. Does anyone see where I'm going wrong at or what could be done? What are some methods others use to do this using dump and restore? --Todd _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
