The command I use is something like: dump u0sf 15000 /dev/rst0 /u/webb When it fails, does it fail with a message from dump wanting another tape or does it fail with an I/O error because you are at the end of the tape? ---------------------------------------------------------------- The above views are my own, not necessarily those of my employer.
