GAH: Disregard my reponse regarding using dump

these programs are not recommended per response

Here is the reference:

Linked from dump's home page <http://dump.sourceforge.net/>, the dump (not)
deprecated FAQ:
<http://dump.sourceforge.net/isdumpdeprecated.html>
Any problem with dump is also a problem with all other backup schemes. Even
if you choose to use another solution, you should read this FAQ to see what
issues you might encounter, as much of it is about generic stuff not
specific to dump.
