Our (and NetBSD's) amanda port can be modified to use this feature, once it is MFC-ed. Currently it runs dump and watches the output. When it outputs the estimate, it kills the dump process(es)... Then, again, it may not be worth the trouble to check the version of the OS just for that... -mi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
