It was a small bug (7381) in the rshd.c version of 2.2.7-RELEASE (I'm running that version on my target server). If someone has the same problem: search the bugs mailing for 7381 and you'll find the simple patch. > I'm currently using NFS and tar to backup 3 FreeBSD servers on the DAT tape >drive of a fourth server. I'd like to switch to dump/rdump, but when I try to >issue a dump -f command, it stops after the connection and analysis of the >local filesystem with a "protocol to remote tape server botched (code "Broken >pipe")" error: > >How-To-Repeat: Backing up a BSDI 2.1 machine to FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE via rdump. >Fix: Find the previous problem ticket for more information.. I can not locate it in GNATS. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: >local# dump -f remote:/dev/rst0 /var > DUMP: Connection to remote established. > DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon Feb 22 14:56:06 1999 > DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch > DUMP: Dumping /dev/rda0s2f (/var) to /dev/rst0 on host remote > DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] > DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] > DUMP: estimated 13026 tape blocks on 0.33 tape(s). > DUMP: Protocol to remote tape server botched (code "Broken pipe"). > DUMP: Lost connection to remote host. > > The local machine is in the root's .rhosts file of the remote machine and >rshd isn't commented out in the remote's /etc/inetd.conf. Of course dump works >well locally.=============END============== I experienced this same problem, backing a BSDI 2.1 machine to the FreeBSD server when I was running 2.2.7.. it went away when I upgraded, but now that I've installed 3.3-RELEASE, the problem is back. Could you please check to see if this was re-broken? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
