Sorry about the late reply -- cleaning out my mailbox!

Maybe someone could pull these changes into FreeBSD? So, the following works for me under NetBSD: (backuphost has rshd/rcmd/rexecd/rlogind disabled) setenv RCMD_CMD ssh setenv TAPE backuphost:/dev/nrst0 (backuphost also needs to be in your .knownhosts file etc.) mt status dump <dump options> <filesystem> mt status mt offl I think this makes dump's job easier, as rmt passes status and error messages etc. back and forth, right?
