Subject: remote dump hangs after 30 minutes...
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
X-Loop: FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk

I'm doing a remote dump on a HP DAT drive of the form:

    /sbin/dump 0uBbf 2000000 10 abcd:/dev/nrst0 /dev/sd0a

and so forth.  Everything seems fine, dump starts rmt on the
remote machine, the backup occurs properly... *if* it can
be completed in less than 30 minutes.  Otherwise, rmt hangs,
(about 30 minutes after it was started), the connection
eventually times out and the dump fails.  I'd be grateful
for any ideas.  Thanks.
