I can't seem to get dump to work properly on remote systems. Below
are the errors. Any ideas about this are welcome.

[root@pokie /root]# dump f elsie:/tmp/dump.file /home4/sen1/fprogs
DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon Feb 17 15:26:38 1997
DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
DUMP: Dumping /dev/sdb1 (/home4) to /tmp/dump.file on host elsie
DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
DUMP: estimated 101 tape blocks on 0.00 tape(s).
DUMP: Protocol to remote tape server botched (code "bash: rmt: command
not found").
rdump: Lost connection to remote host.
DUMP: Bad return code from dump: 1

Does anyone on this list use dump for remote backups to Linux boxes? If
so, what version of Linux, dump, etc. are you using?

TIA,
