Is there a workaround to the 2GB limit... can you reliably pipe dump to split or something then reverse the process with restore later? Working with what will be approximately a 6GB L0 dump so over 3x the size limitation. examples or suggestions appreciated Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
