I have recently retrieved dump/restore from ftp.brl.mil, & I have been trying
to test it out.

When I issue the following command, I get the following results:

./dump 0usdf 7000 54000 sicsg2:/dev/mt/tps0d6nr /dev/root
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Tue Mar 12 10:20:11 1991
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/rroot (/) to /dev/mt/tps0d6nr on host sicsg2.epfl.ch
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 13590 tape blocks on 0.00 tape(s).
  DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
  DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files]
  DUMP: level 0 dump on Tue Mar 12 10:20:11 1991
  DUMP: Tape rewinding
  DUMP: DUMP: 13614 tape blocks on 1 tape(s)
  DUMP: DUMP IS DONE

./restore -if sicsg2:/dev/mt/tps0d6
Login incorrect  

It seems that have some problems with the remote magtape protocol module /etc/rmt
with restore command.

Any clues/hints will be appreciated on how to use dump/restore.
