No, it ain't. I still can't reproduce your problem either. This 64 KB limitation hits both sides, dump(8) writes at most 64 KB blocks, and restore(8) can read'em. For Jordan, this was different: his tape has been written on a non- FreeBSD machine with 256 KB blocking. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
