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.

Have you looked at Amanda? www.amanda.org
This might do what you are looking to do.
Thanks but I'm really just trying to get a dump of the machine prior to an upgrade. So I could still use some help with my question.
Thanks
