DUMP: Bad return code from dump: 1 We are trying to back up to a Connor 2GB SCSI tape. We've tried it under Win95 and it works OK. (the machine is a part time fbsd/win95 box) This machine is a 4/25sx; the other is a pentium/120, both running fbsd 2.1. I've tried the same command line as root, but the other machine complains in the messages that permission denied to root to run "rmt". We've also tried enabling rexecd in inetd.conf but that doesn't help. Any ideas? Suggested mailing lists? :) ADVThanksANCE Doug White | Student, University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@gladstone.uoregon.edu | Major: Computer Science http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Eugene/Spfld BBS List Publisher
