How is > "private" connected/attached/mounted/linked to "PC_Server"? Actually, it's in a directory called /PC_Server/private on your local disk. I'm surprised you can even get to it if something is mounted on /PC_Server. You should put it on a unique mountpoint such as /PC_server_private or somesuch. But if you want to dump it, do this.. rdump.... host:/dev/sd1g Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major
