Note that all the file metadata is at the beginning of the dump so this doesn't require reading the entire dump. Unfortunately, the dump format is not documented in a man page so you will need to UTSL. >P.S. A hash of each file would be icing on the cake, but I don't >expect I could do that without doing a full restore. You would need to read the entire dump but you don't need to restore it - it would be fairly easy to generate file hashes directly from the data in the dump. --=20 Peter Jeremy --LZvS9be/3tNcYl/X Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEE7rKYbDBnHnTmXCJ+FqWXoOSiCzQFAlsLMFlfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldEVF QjI5ODZDMzA2NzFFNzRFNjVDMjI3RTE2QTU5N0EwRTRBMjBCMzQACgkQFqWXoOSi CzRVlQ/9Fj46rPpowmR6WKV2VKGKYO67ri1bUlC/8t8yiCh1Q2z7IoXQvuLs+HdF jWFX0llROeA0oMzBrKbXhmjzYBrovdstvVkhWroBlPEYiXJg3R6uAXzqaaDyYlH/ Ba1LoYsxUHGkgBAHFuH/fc6CXAWG8/LPkegFRcs8VrwnlUJy0nJvnJYI64MSmqjT Xhqq3vWKhkr9vvaiBf4tA2hHmyzs9k7FB2VwxIAFuILYpk4EgWDHHdxozJG1kxQF CpUmjtMRzWKboqEDA8xXwxqTduEcbQHxwS0unSi2a42rUnn8tYo51hyR1MXVpUT1 9KOOMeRqMiGUP7jcjtRsIsSF91g1dpmzUdzd/XPv5te5+tux5IjG3iI7am3r6Vgd p59eCAVvaBaytavHtWDJC++3L6lviwwqZiv01EnWb3CZzrVA0N0iIF3/LO5Obl+E bLD8H9c7gcdSJqjNmVnt+C5dFwQmDwHs3vAPxTiQLTrDko/S89KDLr3MwkY0UxhL 9vKfhge4zF5imyC282WlUxCS9znfo5EmQP5tEu7hyNKTZQ6oTi3Oi6JWWMUmNlX6 RBPS28YdCD+Yeq00bX0TprfSWCg1aehSg3QGDD58o7j9LlzI8A0cd04l9TJ1sVV3 QlfoBYRDyrnWK4KtAEDKR8nv6LG2cSsY+z8kQu0AJ6b9ral9JLA= =gMjA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --LZvS9be/3tNcYl/X--
