I run:

It seems to go to the tape fine.  Then on rsldata I run:


/sbin/restore -if /dev/nst0

I get the error:

/sbin/restore: Tape block size (512) is not a multiple of dump block size (1024)

I've setup ssh so as to not require a password for sshing to rsldata.

I try to adjust block sizes in both "dd" and restore to no avail. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? This typically works fine on Unix (Solaris) but not Fedora.

Thanks
