Linux dump incompesses both dump and rdump of ext2 filesystems
Meaning that there is a rdump command but it doesn't neccessarily
mean that it works the same way the old berkley/sunos rdump does.

You can use dump to dump local filesystems to a file or locally
attached device as well as use it to dump to a remote device or
a dump file on a remote machine.

This syntax worked on a remote DAT drive attached to a Sun IPC
running RedHat Sparc-Linux 5.2 with a 90M tape to use.

dump 0sf 95000 abby:/dev/st0 /data1

I believe one 90M DAT can hold 2.5 gigs of data and /data1 
contained roughly 1.6gigs


- other options:
	u - update dump dates
	d - density of tape
	b - block size(default 512K)


non-rewinding device /dev/nst0
