Subject: default block size on rdump
Sender: questions-owner@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

I am trying to restore a tape from a FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 machine on a sun.  What
is the default block size when writing to the tape.  I have not found it by
looking at the FAQs.  I have tried

restore -rbf 1024 /dev/rst1 

and it restore the stuff but it said that it was skipping blocks and 
resynching itself.

Thanks in advance.
