How can I send the dump output to stdout?

    "dump 0skouf 8200 - /dev/db0b | rsh microvax dd of=$tape"

Yielded only a file named - which was quite large!  Also, what should
the Block Size be (for the dd command on the microvax)?

I tried mounting the Masscomp (read "Concurrent") disk on a Sun
and dumping from the Sun side,
and got a nasty message about a Superblock Error -- and it refused to
do the dump.

I tried running tar on the Masscomp side and sent it to stdout by:

    "tar cf - . | rsh microvax dd obs=10240 of=$tape"

but when I tried "tar tv" on the microvax, it failed about halfway through the tape.


Any ideas? Workarounds? Fixes? Experiences?  
We are running RTU v4.0A.  Is it fixed in RTU v5.0?
