What exactly do you say when you do the dump?  Dump should need to go
through the raw filesystem; at least, any dump program I've ever seen
(tar and cpio don't count) has used the raw filesystem.  I'm not saying
that you can't do a rdump from a machine (whose filesystems you may have
mounted via NFS) to a tape drive somewhere else... but if someone is actually
using NFS to read the files for the dump, I will be mightily surprised.
