My original plan had been to nfs mount the raid partition in the case of a need to restore, but for some reason the linux can't nfs mount the freebsd system (I think the kernel version is too old). So then, my question becomes, what would be the syntax to pull a file from a remote host via ssh, using restore(8)? -Dan -- I want to see how you see. -SK, 6/2/99, 4:30 AM --------Dan Mahoney-------- Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Web: http://prime.gushi.org finger danm@prime.gushi.org for pgp public key and tel# --------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
