Hi everybody,
I made a new version of the linux dump/restore suite, mostly bug fixes
and several new options such as automatic end-of-tape detection.
I was unable to contact Rémy Card (the maintainer); he did not respond
to any of my mails. After several months, I decided to release it, and
to promote myself as the new maintainer :)
Here is the ChangeLog:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.Integrated the changes from FreeBSD-3.1-RELEASE
(mostly bug fixes, buffer overruns, dump has now an "automatic
tape length calculation" flag, dump/restore can use kerberos now
(this is NOT tested), use environment variables for TAPE and
RMT etc.).
2.Integrated three RedHat patches ("glibc", "kernel" and "bread" patches)
3.Corrected a bug in restore when using 'C' option with multi-volumes
tapes (files splited accros two tapes give "size changed" errors
when comparing).
4.Corrected the long standing bug when dumping multiple tapes.
This works for me, needs further testing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The new version should be visible soon on tsx11, meanwhile you can get
it on my web page: http://perso.cybercable.fr/pop
Happy dumping!
Stelian.
